One of the characteristics that set the real estate sector apart for a long time was the gender gap. Real estate-related jobs lacked gender diversity, and women were frequently underrepresented in top positions. Many factors, including as assumptions, industrial practices, and cultural norms, contributed to this mismatch. Today, women hold many leading responsibilities in the commercial real estate industry worldwide. It’s important to remember that despite these substantial achievements, the industry still confronts a lot of challenges (Jonsson). Notable salary gaps and the lack of women in leadership positions are two of the problems that remain unresolved.
By looking at real estate companies that have successfully countered these positive trends, we can all join forces to advance the greater fight for gender parity and the environment. These issues should be included into the environmental, social, and governance structure that the real estate industry is already familiar with, not just because they are directly connected to it.

In real estate-related organizations and businesses, more women are taking on leadership roles. “World’s Most Notable Women Leaders Making a Mark in Real Estate, 2024” has featured many women visionaries like Barbara Kiwempindi who are increasing acknowledgement of women’s abilities and contributions to the industry and leading this change.
