Departure
feedback & pictures from The 2024 Executive Officer meeting
"I have been to a lot of conferences in my 30+ year real estate career. This one was one of the best."
"You know how to throw an event in the proper way. Every detail was accounted for, and it was first class all the way."
"The ease of going to DFW was a plus this year. The attendees are my best network in the industry."
"The agenda was very timely & relevant for myself and our CIO. First class operation on all fronts."
"The meeting was a great balance of presentations, discussions, open networking, and fun activities. The number of participants seemed ideal for ensuring both a variety of perspectives and open, candid conversations. The venue and planned activities were excellent."
"The setup with morning presentations and afternoon discussions was great. Once my table got going, we could have spent another several hours discussing.
"Compared to other meetings and conferences, the relatively small and focused group at NAREIM makes it easy to develop connections with peers. That enables more time for meaningful dialogue, discussion and discovery regarding issues that are relevant to me in my role. Limiting the attendance to executive level and not having service providers in attendance was refreshing for me. I think it helps foster a more open and honest discussion amongst the attendees."
