LEADING LADIES SPARKLE ACROSS AUSTRALASIA
( L-R ) Tamara Shakespeare , Kate Morgan , Bridgette Collis , Bianca Field and Natalie Hortz .
Our Leading Ladies of Real Estate initiative has raised the bar even higher with some 700 women gathering for a simultaneous breakfast in Brisbane , Sydney , Melbourne , Adelaide , Perth and Auckland to be inspired by some of the best in the business .
The unity and collaboration among the group is what makes Ray White so special . Ray White is building a strong female-led community to support women into the industry as many women don ’ t often choose real estate as a first career . Women from across the real estate industry came together in Sydney to hear from three of the industry ’ s leading ladies .
“ There are barriers others will put up for you and there was a time when I listened to those people too much ,” she said .
“ We rely too much on what others think . If I could go back to my eight year old self , I would say you don ’ t need to listen to anybody else ’ s opinions . You know yourself better than anyone else and if you ’ re ready for the next challenge then just go for it .”
Ms Field said “ she has found her family ” at Ray White Surry Hills | Alexandria | Glebe | Erskineville .
Ray White New South Wales general manager Bridgette Collis hosted a panel of top performing women from administration and commercial and residential sales . Ms Collis was joined by Ray White Surry Hills | Alexandria | Glebe | Erskineville senior sales agent Bianca Field , Ray White Commercial South Sydney manager of operations Tamara Shakespeare and Ray White Gerringong principal Kate Morgan .
Ms Field began in real estate when she was 16 years old but her love of real estate began much earlier in life when she would visit open homes with her father , betting on how much the property would sell for . She said some of us are lucky to work out what we want to do early in life but there are still those who want to put you in your place .
