Welcome to the first issue of AExperience (formerly REALTOR® AE Magazine).
In the past two years, state and local associations have stepped up their diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. We share a range of association success stories and delve into some of the challenges—from thinking more broadly about diversity to coming to terms with the true impact of inequity to navigating cultural differences that may impact how to resolve conflicts.
Also in this issue: Avoid getting caught in a troubling trend, lawsuits stemming from professional standards hearings.
