Daniel Queenan, CEO of Real Estate Investments at CBRE, discussed leadership and industry trends in a September 2023 appearance on the MasterMinds: Lessons in Leadership podcast. He described CBRE as a company built to service investor and occupier demands, outlining its three segments: advisory services, which includes brokers and capital markets; and other operational areas. Queenan also shared perspectives on organizational agility, the importance of mentors, and navigating tough conversations, citing traits he admires in others, such as transparency and predictability. During the podcast, Queenan commented on the current market environment, stating that he expected one or two Federal Reserve rate hikes in the second half of 2023 to continue the fight against inflation, which would likely push a market activity rebound into 2024. He also recounted a lesson from a former colleague, Jerry Rourke, about the importance of identifying and prioritizing the top three issues in a business deal, as doing so can make other concerns irrelevant.
