“I do know people (males) in my team who talk about prior experience in different firms (in leaving early to collect their children or sharing childcare with their partners) and feeling negativity from those around them. It does exist.”
The final day of Madison Berkeley’s The REal Juggle campaign supported by CoStar. We hope you have enjoyed listening to this campaign which aims to start conversations and change the narrative for parents in terms of flexibility within the RE industry.
For those that have listened each day this week to these 20-30 minute round table audio discussions I think you will agree that co – founder of Madison Berkeley Clare Coe and her colleague Jack Hechle have done a great job in hosting the sessions. They have spoken to real estate professionals both male and female from firms like Knight Frank, British Land and Derwent. During these discussions we have heard the truthful sharing of parenting experiences alongside holding senior positions in real estate and the issues that parents in real estate face. These discussions really are a must-listen for everyone in the industry regardless of gender or seniority. We hope you will share them all with your community as well as add your thoughts and comments to the conversation on LinkedIn.
On our final day of discussion, we welcome Rob Codling Senior Fund Manager at Legal and General Investment Management and Alex Keith Director at SEGRO PLC into the room.
