Cheryl McKissack Daniel, CEO of McKissack & McKissack, discusses the future of diversity in the construction industry in this episode of the  Women on the Move podcast with host Sam Saperstein. As the leader of the oldest minority- and women-owned construction firm in the U.S., Cheryl emphasizes the importance of diversity in all project phases. Her firm, with roots dating back to 1790, has a rich history of overcoming racial and gender barriers. Cheryl's great-grandfather, Moses McKissack III, and his brother Calvin became the first Black licensed architects in the United States in 1920. Cheryl's journey began with degrees in civil engineering from Howard University, followed by experience at Weidlinger Associates and Turner Construction in New York City. Her mother, who took over the family business after Cheryl's father suffered a stroke, taught her the importance of relationship-building and embracing her identity as a woman in a male-dominated industry. Cheryl commuted between New York and Nashville to learn from her mother, gaining insights into business development and staff management. She stresses the value of maintaining long-term relationships and being true to oneself as a woman leader. Cheryl is proud of the progress women have made in leadership roles across various sectors and believes their influence has positively changed business practices.   Disclaimer: The speakers' opinions belong to them and may differ from opinions of JPMorgan Chase & Co. and its affiliates.

In this conversation, Pres McKissack interviews Anna McKissack about how to effectively articulate and communicate the value proposition of Keller Williams. Anna shares her experience rising through the ranks at KW and how that experience helps her differentiate KW when talking to recruits. She emphasizes defining vague buzzwords and focusing on the specifics of KW's training, events, and resources. Anna recommends leveraging one's own experience and growth at KW to demonstrate the company's ability to change lives. Pres agrees that agents should focus on growing their own businesses and lives through what KW offers in order to authentically share how KW has benefited them. The overall message is that agents need to clearly define and provide specifics about KW's value to stand out from other companies and effectively recruit others to the KW model.

The family business was incorporated in 1905, however the family's history of architects and builders began with an enslaved Ashanti ancestor in 1790.“We document the Black experience through our structures,” Cheryl says with pride. Her grandfather, Moses McKissack III and his brother Calvin were the first black licensed architects in the country. “It's a sense of strength for me,” she says. “I haven't had to deal with anything my ancestors had to deal with.”Listen in as Cheryl tells us how her grandfathers and parents shaped Black history through their bravery and determination to see their business succeed. She discusses the biggest challenges she had to overcome once she took the reins of McKissack, and how she sees the future of the construction industry.Highlights1) 1 out of every 5 businesses fail in their first year, and the odds get even lower when it comes to passing a company from one generation to the next. Cheryl, a black woman and a fifth-generation business owner, proves that everybody has the ability to create their own destiny.2) We can all play a part in getting projects like the Affirmation Tower to finally break ground. It all comes down to getting the word out, holding our leaders accountable, and creating a groundswell of support.3) Getting into the construction industry doesn't necessarily require getting a construction or architecture degree. From finance, to business development, to marketing, to PR, to insurance, to writing (ex. creating business proposals), there are many avenues to a career in this multifaceted industry.How to find herInstagram - @cheryl.mckissackWebsite- https://mckissack.com/ Buy our merch- https://blackrealestatedialogue.com/collections/allAccess all of our resources on our website- https://www.blackrealestatedialogue.com

He is also a Board Member of McKissack & McKissack, a privately-held, family business that is a national architectural, engineering, and program and construction management firm.Even though he is an only child, Eric grew up in a large extended family of business leaders and entrepreneurs who had a strong family identity. In fact, his grandfather and great uncle were the first Black registered architects in the US. Because of the influence of the family business, Eric went to MIT for architecture but ended up in Sloan to pursue his own interests in business. He started in banking but then worked many years in investment management before starting Channing with his partners. He shares his journey from that pivotal moment, getting his executive MBA while founding an investment firm, how they overcame the challenges along the way, and how one can succeed in this space. This episode is valuable for people who aspire to start their own investment firms or join the board of directors as Eric shares his wealth of experiences and motivations to be in the boardroom of successful organizations.Episode Quotes:On starting his own investment firm“Another pivotal moment in my career, I got to a point where I felt that either I would stay where I was indefinitely, and that would be the duration of my career and be my experiences, or I could have the experience of starting a firm of my own. While I had joined Ariel early on, I was not a founder. And so, it was like a fork in the road kind of opportunity in my mind, and I took it.”On Channing, his investment firm, surviving the great recession“Certainly, starting a firm is challenging at any time and place. But also, the industry had changed a lot from early in my career. It wasn't long before the Great Recession hit, so there were a lot of challenges. Nevertheless, we were able to survive those. I always say that we got through that period, and Lehman and Bear Stearns didn't. So, we felt we had something to be proud of, to get through the great recession. And the firm continues on with my partners.”On investment markets being all about human nature“Sometimes, periods of overvaluation and undervaluation can last very long, longer than the patience of your clients. Clients may not be patient enough to recognize that there's a bubble brewing and want to go where they think the grass is greener, to another manager, or do a reallocation. Ultimately, markets are still about human nature no matter how much technology is introduced into the process. And human nature can sometimes lead to business outcomes that are not favorable even for the most talented investment managers.”On raising capital for their first fund as a minority-owned firm“There are always challenges raising money in any business or any investment entity. And I can't say that the challenges were strictly based on pure discrimination. But I think what often happens is that certain types of resumes get more of a path or more of a benefit of the doubt than others. That's not to say that doesn't happen for some diverse candidates, that they have the same kind of resumes, but that wasn't the background that I had.I came out of a minority-owned firm to launch another minority firm. And while that firm had a great track or reputation, I don't think we necessarily got the same benefit of the doubt. It was more like, "Okay, well, let's see what you can do in this new environment. And then we'll give you money if we like what we see."Who succeeds in founding their own investment firm and why“The people who are most successful at it are those that have been able to develop track records through prior experience and have the kind of blue-chip backgrounds. But very often too, it takes a certain person to decide they want to do that because if you're at a successful firm and you have a great track record, then a lot of people are very comfortable staying there because they are very often making very high compensation. There may be golden handcuffs. There are all kinds of reasons why starting a business is something you have to be highly motivated about.”Show Links:Eric on LinkedInHarlem Shuffle by Colson Whitehead Isabel WilkersonSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/onehaas/donations

This final, magnificent picture book from three-time Coretta Scott King Award winner and Newbery Honor author Patricia McKissack is a poignant and uplifting celebration of the joy of giving."Misery loves company," Mama says to James Otis. It's been a rough couple of months for them, but Mama says as long as they have their health and strength, they're blessed. One Sunday before Valentine's Day, Reverend Dennis makes an announcement during the service-- the Temples have lost everything in a fire, and the church is collecting anything that might be useful to them. James thinks hard about what he can add to the Temple's "love box," but what does he have worth giving? With her extraordinary gift for storytelling, McKissack--with stunning illustrations by Harrison--delivers a touching, powerful tale of compassion and reminds us all that what is given from the heart, reaches the heart.

"What was the hardest part about being out in a sorority?" "Did ever feel you were just used as a face of acceptance and inclusion for a place that wasn't that?" "What are the best parts about Greek life?" "How can we change a system so rooted in antiquated ways?"On this week's episode, I interview Addison McKissack (she/her), who's a journalist and the editor of our show; not only that but she is also and Alpha Delta Pi alumna and the first openly gay president of the National Panhellenic Conference chapter at Texas State. Something that is very integral to the college experience is that of Greek life. However, the unfortunate thing about this system, is that its many antiquated elements (language and policies) that negatively perpetuate gender roles and heteronormativity. Though, as Addison shares, there are many positive elements to the Greek life--creating family that expands generations, the philanthropic elements--it can often be hard to acknowledge the good when the "foundation of the house" is made up of elitist principles. Addison tells her story of doing Alpha Delta Pi and eventually becoming the first openly gay president of the Texas Sate Chapter of the National Panhellenic Conference.We also discuss:Organizations and companies commodifying Queer and BIPOC people as faces of inclusion and diversity.Traditions that perpetuate inherent heteronormativityExclusion of Queer people in the Greek systemWhy the Greek system should still existHow to make the system more inclusiveFollow Addison:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/addisonmckiss/Twitter: https://twitter.com/addisonmckissHouse of GG:Learn: https://houseofgg.orgDonate: https://houseofgg.org/donate/Resources for Further Learning:Secret Sisters: Stories of Being Lesbian and Bisexual in a College Sorority: https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Sisters-Stories-Bisexual-Sorority/dp/1555835880"Gay and Greek: LGBTQ+ students make homes in fraternities and sororities": https://www.dailytarheel.com/article/2019/02/gay-and-greek-0218"What's It Like Being Queer and in Greek Life? 4 Students Tell Us":  https://www.toughtotame.org/4-students-tell-us-what-its-like-to-be-queer-and-in-greek-lifeGreek and queer: LGBTQ+ students navigate Greek life at the university: http://udreview.com/greek-and-queer-lgbtq-students-navigate-greek-life-at-the-university/Show Produced by Nick EiblerEdited by Addison McKissackTheme Song written by Matt Gregory, Colin Egan, and Mike Hubbard Produced by Colin Egan and Mike HubbardLogo Design by David Pavón

Cheryl McKissack Daniel, civil engineer, has more than 25 years of experience in all phases of the design and construction industry including major project work in the commercial, healthcare, education and transportation sectors. Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Cheryl comes from a long lineage of architects and builders that began with an enslaved Ashanti ancestor in 1790. Cheryl's grandfather, Moses McKissack, founded the family business in 1905. Her father, William DeBerry McKissack took over in 1968, and her mother Leatrice Buchanan McKissack grew the business after her husband died. Today, Cheryl represents the fifth generation of the McKissack family's century old business, McKissack & McKissack, the oldest minority and woman-owned design and construction firm in the nation. McKissack provides construction management, program management and consulting services for various project types throughout the East Coast and the United States. The firm's primary focus is in the infrastructure, transit, healthcare and education sectors. The McKissack family of services extends into areas of expertise beyond traditional A/E/C disciplines, broadly supporting client needs related to their facilities. Over the years, Cheryl has built upon the success of her firm's fore parents by fostering long lasting relationships and by providing innovative solutions to complex projects. Her success stems from her unique ability to listen, ask the right questions, lead through expertise, and always being prepared. To each project her firm undertakes, Cheryl brings capabilities drawn from her staff of architects, engineers, and construction professionals. Her company currently employs over 150 employees and has contracted more than $50 billion dollars in construction over the past decade. Within McKissack clients find a mastery of talent blended with commitment, resources, and implementation skills, all under the leadership of Cheryl McKissack. As President and CEO, Cheryl serves as Project Executive on all of her firm's high-profile projects. In this capacity she provides executive leadership and ensures that diversity is implemented during each phase of a project or program. Her skills include expertise in estimating, scheduling, design review, document control, construction inspection, and developing and implementing quality assurance/quality control programs. McKissack is involved with some of New York's largest projects including: JFK Terminal One; LGA Central Terminal Building Redevelopment; Coney Island Hospital Redevelopment; Harlem Hospital Center Modernization; the NYC Economic Development Corporation Hunts Point Cooperative Market and Fulton Fish Market; MART125 Cultural Center in Harlem; Pacific Park/ Atlantic Yards Barclays Center; The Women's Building; Pier 42 Redevelopment; and The Studio Museum in Harlem. McKissack also serves as the MTA Independent Engineer overseeing the Capital Construction Program of the nation's largest transportation system. Cheryl serves on numerous, corporate, charitable and community boards. As a board member, Cheryl focuses on strategic planning as part of good governance. She believes strategic planning is a critical part to a board's mission and formulating good strategy ensures long-term value creation, building an ethical culture and managing risk. Cheryl has been honored as a “Hero of Liberty” for her support of humanitarian initiatives and for promoting the responsibilities of a free and diverse America. She earned both a bachelor and master's degree in civil engineering from Howard University and graduate course work Columbia University in Civil engineering.

You may have heard of the Kellogg School of Business - she was a Professor there. Among her many positions held, she was the CEO at Ebony, a VP at US Robotics, and is the current CEO and Founder of Nia Enterprises.  She leaves our listeners with a piece of great advice when she says, "Regardless of what you're doing, whether you're working for a nonprofit, whether you're working for a corporation or you're an entrepreneur, is that everyone needs to think like an entrepreneur. What I mean by that is that the skills and characteristics that entrepreneurs have, whether it be their purpose, their passion, innovation, ability to take risks, desire to grow, those are all things that I think each of us can really put into our personal lives."  With her multitude of experiences, she came to a few revelations. "I found that I wanted to have diversity in all aspects of my life. In the relationships that I had, the friends that I had, the organizations that I participated in because I don't think that I'm just about one thing. I think most of us are just about one thing. I think we're all pretty diverse in our likes and dislikes and our wants and our needs. We're really responsible for making sure that we create our own lifestyles that allow us to do that. And so you have to ask yourself some really important questions."   Learn more about Cheryl and connect here:  http://www.theentrepreneurialsell.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/cheryl-mayberry-mckissack/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/173279880X   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
