Who’s Got The Power? Inman’s Power Players Revealed!
The Red Carpet Event for Real Estate Magnates
Inman has flourished the red carpet and unfurled the golden envelopes. The Power Players list is here, recognizing 137 industry big-wigs for their scintillating performances in the boardroom and beyond. If real estate were a high school, these shining stars would be winning ‘Most Likely to Succeed’, ‘Class Clown’ and ‘Biggest Flirt’ except replace the juvenile titles with ‘Most Pointer of all Players’, ‘Wildest Fiscal Wizard’, and ‘Smoothest Corporate Talker’!
The Power Players List: A Glimpse into the Fiscally Fabulous
Get ready for some voyeuristic pleasure! The curtains are drawn, and we’re peering into the ledger books of the industry’s crème de la crème. With their impressive portfolio, savvy business tactics, and unwavering commitment to beating their quarterly targets, these fiscal maestros are schooling us all in the art of making money, and lots of it!
More than Numbers: The Power Players Awards Night!
Expect more laughter, cheers, and backslapping as Inman expands its awards for the coming year. A minute of silence for those dull sit-down dinner occasions where the evening’s highlight is a PowerPoint slide full of numbers. Inman has traded the monotonous humdrums of business meets for a glitzy award night worth every headline—and the applause!
My hot take:
So, here’s the deal: Inman’s Power Players list makes the Forbes list look like a dog’s breakfast. A platform typically reserved for dry, analytical reporting has suddenly turned into the glitziest hotspot. We’re now privy to the inner workings of the top 137 industry leaders who effortlessly balance business cards in one hand and champagne flutes in the other.
As Inman further promises to expand its awards, are we looking at a future where power point presentations are replaced with emotional acceptance speeches and ‘Oh-my-god-I-can’t-believe-I-won-this’ moments? Can we look forward to seeing CEOs tripping over their acceptance speeches instead of their quarter-year predictions?
All said and done, kudos to Inman for spicing up the industry’s reporting routine. Because let’s face it: in a world of mortgage calculations and lease negotiations, a little fun wouldn’t hurt. And by “a little fun,” we mean events that have more in common with the MTV awards than with a real estate conference. Roll out the red carpet, folks. Real estate’s Hollywood moment is here!
