SUMMARY:February 2026 Lunch Ladder: "Early Due Diligence" with Terracon Consultants (Members Only)
DESCRIPTION:Early due diligence can make or break a project—but key decisions often need to be made long before anyone sets foot on site.

In this session\, we’ll show how these tools streamline environmental permitting and the due diligence process—helping you protect your projects\, your budget\, and your schedule. \n  \nPrice:  Terracon is generously providing lunch for you.\nLocation: Terracon’s Office \n  \nRegister Now\n  \nThank You to Our Sponsor

SUMMARY:2026 Mentor Program Applications Due!
DESCRIPTION:Applications Now Being Accepted for the 2026 Mentor Program!\n  \nCREW Charlotte’s mission is to influence the success of the commercial real estate industry by advancing the achievements of its members. CREW Charlotte helps implement this by providing a mentor program. This 12 month mentor program aims to support aspiring CREW members and sponsors as well as experts in the industry wanting to give back. \n  \nThe model is basic – pairing both a mentee and seasoned real estate professional’s unique capabilities\, goals\, and strengths with one another. CREW members and sponsors are eligible for both mentor and mentee opportunities.   CREW Charlotte will assign a CREW member\, called a Mentor Champion\, to support each relationship’s progress and success by being a resource. \n  \nSuccess in today’s commercial real estate environment demands innovation and strategic thinking\, balanced with action born from experience and hard work. Our members recognize that it takes skill to navigate a successful career in an industry where women are a visible minority. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFAQ’s\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho can apply? \nAs a CREW member or sponsor\, you can apply to become a mentor or a mentee. To participate as a mentee\, you must be an active CREW member or work for a sponsor company. Non-CREW members can serve as mentors to allow maximum pairing of unique mentee needs. \n  \nWhat is the time commitment? \nThe Mentor Program requires a time commitment of 12 months. During this time period\, the mentor and mentee will set up a mutually agreed-upon communication timeline. This timeline is a requirement that the pairing speak at least once per month\, with six of these engagements being in person. \n  \nHow do I apply? \nClick here to fill out the CREW Charlotte 2026 Mentee Application \nClick here to fill out the CREW Charlotte 2026 Mentor Application \n  \nWhat will I have to guide me through the process? \nCREW Charlotte will provide each pairing with a Mentor Program Handbook. This will serve as a basis to establish an understanding of goals\, expectations\, mutual communication timeline\, and background information about each person. Based on the agreed-upon focus of each pairing\, more tailored resources will be provided. \n  \nWhat will the Mentor Champion do? \nThis person will review the initial handbook to be sure all items are addressed. They will then meet with the mentor and mentee at the 6-month mark to review the relationship. She or he will also check in on each person periodically to receive feedback.
