One of the CBRE's goals is to create a more diverse company. To help achieve this objective, the company has formally established a national networking group comprised of African-American professionals located in CBRE offices throughout the United States.
The mission of the African-American Network Group (AANG) is to create a platform that will enable CBRE to accentuate the value that is established through having a diverse employee base. AANG firmly believes that talent comes in many different forms and our goal is to accentuate each one of them. Talent, above all else, is cultivated, nourished and considered the foundation of the CBRE culture. It is our belief that a diverse workplace increases CBRE's ability to better serve its clients while improving the community.
Recruitment and retention are among the main objectives of AANG, which is comprised of licensed brokers. The group's career development activities include generating, collecting, and sharing information in an effort to increase multi-market business opportunities; and its members are also identifying and targeting African-American firms and other companies that embrace diversity as potential new clients. |
