CREW Network - (785) 832-1808

CREW Network is the industry's premier business networking organization dedicated to supporting the achievements of women in commercial real estate.

CREW Network Initiatives

Business Development:
Facilitating business networking and deal making among its multi-disciplinary membership are at the cornerstone of the CREW Network organization. To support its members’ business development, CREW Network provides four major networking events per year: Winter, Spring and Fall Leadership Summits & Council Meetings, and the CREW Network Convention & Marketplace. Additionally, CREW Network develops leading-edge business tools for its members such as the CREW Network Deal Room and CREWbiz™. Members of CREW Network know through experience “there are no cold calls in CREW Network.”

Leadership Development:
Building effective leaders is key to advancing the commercial real estate industry. CREW Network commits significant resources toward providing members with high-level leadership development training and opportunities to serve on national boards and lead national committees in order to develop and hone effective leadership skills.

Industry Research:
CREW Network launched its industry research initiative in 2004 due to the lack of available statistical information about women in commercial real estate. In 2005, CREW Network published the industry’s first ever benchmark study which measured compensation, advancement and success and satisfaction levels of men and women in commercial real estate. This study provided the industry with critical information that has influenced corporate recruitment and retention programs. CREW Network continues to conduct this benchmark study every five years as well as develops white papers annually on topics that address the business case for diversity. CREW Network is the leading producer of research on women in commercial real estate.

Career Outreach:
Commercial real estate offers rewarding and lucrative careers often overlooked by women who are often times unaware that these opportunities exist. CREW Network is committed to bringing more women into commercial real estate by creating programs that educate women and girls about the career opportunities available to them (CREW Careers and UCREW), supporting the attainment of commercial real estate education (CREW Network Scholarship Program) and providing mentoring relationships to those new to the industry (eMentoring).
