There’s something fundamentally good about entrepreneurship:  Starting a business can help people improve their livelihoods, and new ideas can improve standards of living.

Entrepreneurship isn’t perfectly fair (some people will always have more advantages than others), but it does provide a crucial avenue of economic mobility.

If you’re a real estate leader, some of the best work you can do is provide “normal people” a shot at becoming successful entrepreneurs.

This is hopeful work.

Hopeful for you.

But more importantly, hopeful for the people you help realize their potential and do their best work inside your organization.

As you labor at the hard work of recruiting, don’t lose sight of the true purpose that undergirds your work.
