The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) has recognized 17 of the best and brightest mortgage professionals in a graduation ceremony for MBA’s inaugural Commercial/Multifamily (C/MF) Future Leaders Program. MBA's C/MF Future Leaders Program delivers a comprehensive leadership training experience for selected participants through three events offered throughout the year. These three hands-on sessions are geared toward customized assessment of leadership skills and their strategic application; business analysis and problem solving and experiential learning through collaboration, networking and peer group interaction. MBA initiated a Future Leaders program 18 years ago, and now boasts a national network of more than 400 real estate finance professionals who have completed the program. This year’s graduates, however, are the first to complete a rigorous program with a specific focus on grooming new leaders in the $2.6 trillion commercial/multifamily real estate debt industry.
"It is very exciting to see the inaugural class of talented and motivated industry professionals complete the Commercial/Multifamily Future Leaders Program,” said MBA Vice Chairman Rodrigo López. “The future of the industry’s success lies in grooming our next generation of leaders. MBA’s advanced and challenging curriculum equipped these outstanding new leaders to further their companies’ goals and objectives and, in doing so, to strengthen the industry’s foundation as a whole."
