The Unique Need for Strategic Planning in Real Estate

Strategic planning in the real estate sector is often overlooked in academic curricula and corporate practices. Charlie Hewitt emphasizes that real estate companies face unique challenges due to the cyclical nature of the industry, which necessitates tailored strategic approaches. His experiences teaching at prestigious universities highlight the rarity of strategic planning being treated as a core topic within real estate education, indicating a gap in knowledge and practice. This lack of focus motivates Hewitt to provide insights through his book, filling a void in educational resources relevant to real estate strategic planning.
