A Community To Connect and Explore “Journeys” in Commercial and Multifamily Real Estate
Introduction
After two years and 48 episodes interviewing Washington DC area real estate icons with almost 39,000 episode downloads, I’ve decided to offer an opportunity for young real estate professionals to expand their horizons and join a membership community to extract wisdom from the many podcast guests and from content that I will add to the online community forum. Below is a summary of the criteria for membership and an overview of the initial content:
Membership Criteria
- 22-40 years old
- Maximum total membership will be 100 members
- Either employed in or aspiring to join the commercial/multifamily real estate industry
- Diversity in gender, race, and disciplines (career focus- development, brokerage, architecture, law, accounting, etc.)
- Intent in staying involved and interacting with other members. This will not be measured, however, if demand to join exceeds the capacity, there may be follow up questioning of interest
- Curiosity and contribution will be appreciated.
Initial Content
- Online forum through Circle (a community software platform)
- Iconic Journey- Careers(see below)- a framework to explore career paths in the industry. Each path has the list of Icons of DC Area Real Estate guests whose careers are on this path to help you with your thinking.
- Napkin– A new software product that extracts thoughts from the Icons podcast through citing keywords or podcast guest names to read the thoughts and ideas (see graphic below)
- Book Discussions– Thought provoking book recommendations with both real estate and multidisciplinary themes
- Mastermind Groups– They are small groups of 4-8 people that meet periodically to share ideas in a specific format that is defined by the group. Members interested would self organize these groups and John Coe can help facilitate with best practices
- Events– Live and Virtual Meetings and Tours which will be organized bi-weekly. Initially John Coe will present to the members in the first virtual session an Ask Me Anything about the community or the vision for it. Subsequently, we envision site tours with developers leading them, leaders providing perspective on career paths that interest members, and at least one live event in the Fall with several of the leading Icons similar to the December, 2020 webinar.
