Ferguson Partners is pleased to announce its partnership with the Real Estate Executive Council (REEC).
REEC is the premier trade association for minorities at executive levels in commercial real estate. Through programs, conferences, networking events and alliances with strategic partners, REEC members receive access to resources in various forms that will support the advancement of their careers and professional goals. Beyond its membership, REEC is creating a community of support amongst minorities in the CRE industry.
Ferguson Partners is a global talent management boutique with a strong focus on the real estate and real asset industries. With four business lines (Executive Search, Compensation Consulting, Management Consulting and Leadership Consulting) and offices in Charlotte, Chicago, Hong Kong, London, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Tokyo, and Toronto the Ferguson Partners team is dedicated to offering personalized client services and an integrated talent management solution.
As a founding Diversity Partner — Human Capital, Ferguson Partners is excited by the opportunity to assist REEC network with leaders across the real estate industry and to assist those leaders to find new and innovative ways to build inclusive cultures, establish supportive organizational structures, facilitate equitable pay and find and retain diverse talent at all levels. Helping to facilitate conversations not only in the Boardroom but at every level will be key to the success of the partnership. Ferguson Partner’s commitment to the industry is to go the extra mile to ensure all searches have diverse longlists and shortlists and that search processes are unbiased and inclusive. And our commitment to society is that we believe we can help provide possibilities to those who may have been systematically excluded in the advancement of their careers.
“It has been an absolute pleasure getting to know the team at REEC over the last 18 months. I was lucky enough to be invited to their annual conference last year in Boston. It was immediately apparent that the programming was excellent, but the conversations need to be heard by all leaders within the real industry and not just by the diverse talent in the room. The partnership was delayed a little by the COVID-19 situation, but we are excited to do all that we can to help REEC to champion diversity within the industry we love.” Gemma Burgess, President US Search
“We are delighted that Ferguson Partners is our Founding Diversity Partner for pipeline development. Ferguson is as passionate as we are about diversity and changing the face of the real estate industry. We look forward to transforming the industry together!” Tammy Jones, Chair, REEC
