Real Estate New Jersey - December 2008

SUZANNE MACNOW
First Vice President
CB Richard Ellis

Suzanne Macnow specializes in Central New Jersey, and is personally credited with more than 500 sale and lease deals, including 120,000 square feet for Holmdel Corporate Plaza; 60,000 at 788 Shrewsbury Ave.; a 100-acre sale in Tinton Falls; a 33,000-square-foot build-to-suit in Monroe; and 92,000 square feet for K. Hovnanian. A well-known and prolific broker consistently among the top 10 office brokers at CBRE, she’s a mentor to other women in the field.

Key Issue: “I don’t believe, in this modernized country, that women have any ‘issues’ in this business. Thankfully, my experience has always been that a client will try to hire the best broker, and gender has nothing to do with their decision. Many women have decided to take control of their role in the workplace and push forth the notion that women can succeed in this business.”

AMY MARKS
Chief Sales and Marketing Officer
Kullman Buildings Corp.

With the Lebanon-based Kullman, Amy Marks is credited with facilitating rapid sales growth by building an extensive dealer network and expanding the company’s client base, while driving down costs by more than $4 million. Earlier this year,

she was one of a handful of women to be accepted to and graduate from Harvard Business School’s prestigious Advancement Management Program. She’s also one of the few women in industry to be identified by the CEO of a construction firm as a possible successor.

Key Issue: “As more women enter the construction trades, there is increasing concern about their health and safety. There are issues specific to female workers. Many of these challenges can be addressed, but for changes to take place, these issues need to be given greater voice. Improving work conditions will not only ensure their health and safety, but will also serve to attract and retain women.”
