About this listen

 Real estate is a mighty industry, but even the mightiest can face a catastrophic end when they don’t evolve. NAR’s CEO, Nykia Wright, saw it happen in journalism. Now she’s determined to make sure real estate doesn’t follow the same path. The market—and the industry as a whole— is going through a critical time. We have seen massive disruption in recent years. Legal, structural, reputational, and technological changes are just a few of the forces challenging our future. Every organization that touches real estate is rethinking its strategy and experience to meet changing member demands. The question is: how can associations get strong enough to withstand disruption and truly future-proof themselves? Ultimately, it’s about keeping agents at the center and empowering successful transactions. So, how is NAR evolving to meet this moment? How do we reimagine the association experience? And how can local, state, and national associations work together to move the industry forward? In this episode, Nykia Wright shares how the Association is responding to today’s challenges and what it will take to lead the industry into the future. Coming from journalism, I’ve seen the catastrophic end to an industry that used to be mighty. Understanding that that can happen to any industry keeps me motivated. -Nykia Wright Things You’ll Learn In This Episode No industry is too big to fail How did Nykia’s front-row seat to journalism’s collapse shape her approach to leading NAR?
