Advocacy: How Robin Webb Has Helped Women Break the Glass Ceiling

Advocacy: How Robin Webb Has Helped Women Break the Glass Ceiling

Author: Veronica Malolos, CCIM April 5, 2024 Duration: 22:06

This week, for the first time, I invited a man to join the Women Influencers in Business & CRE Podcast. It was a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with one of my Mentors, Robin Webb, who has been a staunch advocate for Women in Commercial Real Estate. 

We discussed how he grew up poor between Georgia and Florida, left home at just 14 years old, and worked his way through High School and College. After finding an opportunity to work in the sales side of the Hotel business, Robin remained in the Hospitality industry for 13 years running 28 hotels across the Southeastern US. At 32, he decided to get out of the Hotel business and later started his own business to sell hotels despite having no background in Commercial Real Estate. 3 years after starting his business, CCIM came into his world and taught him Real Estate. 

Robin became Global President of the CCIM Institute in 2017, appointing the majority of his leadership as women.

Hosted by Veronica Malolos, CCIM-Founder and CEO of Capital Stack Real Estate Group-the Women Influencers podcast moves beyond surface-level success stories to explore the nuanced realities of leadership, ambition, and personal philosophy. Each conversation delves into the practical strategies and formative experiences of women who have shaped their fields, with a particular lens on business and commercial real estate. These are not just interviews; they are deep dives into the decisions, setbacks, and pivotal moments that define a career. Veronica’s background as an operator in the Greater Orlando market informs a grounded, insightful dialogue that resonates whether you’re building a company, navigating a corporate ladder, or redefining your own path. The discussions naturally span categories from concrete business tactics to broader cultural and societal themes, reflecting the multifaceted lives these influencers lead. This podcast serves as a resource for anyone seeking authentic perspective, emphasizing that influence is cultivated through resilience and insight as much as through achievement. Listen for candid reflections on balancing ambition with life’s other demands, the philosophical underpinnings of a leadership style, and the often-unspoken challenges of carving out space in competitive industries. It’s a series dedicated to amplifying voices that not only succeed but also thoughtfully pave the way for others.
