Connect CRE Now Certified as Minority Owned Business
Continuing a commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion that has been a part of its makeup since the beginning, Connect CRE has been certified by NMSDC, the National Minority Supplier Development Council, as a minority owned business. In addition to its ownership, the company’s team walks the walk: 50% women and 39% minority.
“We don’t just speak about supporting minority groups, we practice these beliefs every day,” says Connect founder, president and CEO Daniel Ceniceros. “With our accomplished, highly skilled, and diverse team, Connect breaks boundaries while always maintaining the highest level of service possible.”
The company strives to be a place of inclusion and acceptance where people feel that their voices and opinions can be heard. It has established the following pillars as its guiding principles:
• Foster a Place of Inclusion
- Encourage Diversity of Thought
- Educate our Team
- Embrace our Differences
- Cultivate Relationships with Clients and Vendors with Likeminded Goals
- Lead by Example
- Listen Actively
For other industry companies, working with Connect can confer dual benefits. Supporting a certified minority owned business, which for some large corporations counts toward corporate commitment quotas, occurs while receiving expert services tailored toward you. If a company doesn’t have a formal DEI policy, Connect’s communications team can help develop one.
