Ask most people to name successful women in institutional real estate, you’d be hard-pressed not to find Collete English Dixon and Soultana Reigle on that list. Dixon, a principal with Prudential Real Estate Investors and co-leader of the firm’s national dispositions program, oversees a team that completed over $9 billion in portfolio asset sales since 2008. PREI managing director Reigle is responsible for defining and executing the investment strategy and portfolio management strategy for a $2.2-billion value-added real estate portfolio. Dixon and Reigle work in separate offices—Chicago and Madison, NJ, respectively—but they share a common cause, which is to help the industry diversify its ranks. They also share a unique relationship as part of an ad-hoc support system both to each other and other women looking to advance their careers.
