Legacy, Leadership and Resillience
Building a successful business takes more than scale. It requires a clear vision, a strong culture, and the ability to evolve with the market. In this episode of Building Better Communities, Bob Hart sits down with Justin Wheeler, Chief Executive Officer of Berkadia, to discuss his journey from helping build the firm following the financial crisis to leading one of the nation's premier commercial real estate finance and advisory platforms.
Their conversation explores Berkadia's evolution from a transaction- driven business to a trusted advisor, the importance of culture and mentorship, and why long-term relationships continue to drive lasting success. A thoughtful discussion on building enduring organizations.
