DALLAS, November 2017 – At the Five Star Conference in September, the mortgage industry came together in the name of inclusion. The FORCE, Five Star’s residential REO agent/broker network, announced the implementation of new diversity committees last month to serve under the FORCE Diversity and Inclusion Council as champions for acceptance and progress throughout the organization and beyond.
Diversity requires acceptance of different people, perspectives, ideas, and norms. The purpose of the FORCE D&I Committees is to achieve a greater understanding of the ways diversity and inclusion can strengthen an organization, improve workplace environments, and increase overall performance in the industry.
The FORCE Diversity and Inclusion Council and its Committees will provide a platform for stimulating dialogue and change promoting diversity and inclusion throughout the organization and the industry at large. The FORCE looks forward to sharing with you all the great work we do in the name of diversity and inclusion moving forward.
About the FORCE
Based in Dallas, Texas, the FORCE (Federation of REO Certified Experts) connects asset managers, investors, and other REO property holders with Five Star’s network of elite agents and brokers.
