Synopsis "In the Black: Changing the Dominant Narrative in the Commercial Real Estate Industry"
Discover how profitability is tied to diversity In the Black offers a compelling account of T. Dallas Smith's experience as a young Black man trying to break into the commercial real estate industry in the 1980s. Against the odds, Smith became the first Black broker at the Atlanta outpost of Cushman & Wakefield and then built a successful career at the helm of his own commercial real estate company. Smith's account is at intervals provocative, humorous, and inspiring. Throughout the twists and turns of his narrative, the central message remains clear: there is much work yet to be done diversifying the faces of the commercial real estate industry. Smith's business success story poses a direct challenge to the very community in which he's cut a path to success: it's well past time to hire, train, and mentor more Black brokers. This book takes a step in that direction by introducing young Black men and women to a field they may not have previously considered. For Smith, increasing industry exposure is the first in a series of necessary changes that includes sharing knowledge, establishing networks and relationships with contacts and mentors, and, ultimately, moving the industry itself to recognize and reward interest, hard work, and enthusiasm for the field.
