In Conversations With…
A podcast by the Australian Academy of Property, hosted by Wendy Thomson
Each episode features honest conversations with experienced professionals from commercial property and the wider business community about the people, decisions and experiences that shape the industries we work in.
These are not promotional interviews. They are practical discussions about careers, leadership, communication, risk, challenges and the lessons that only come from real experience.
If you’re interested in commercial property, business and thoughtful conversations that challenge accepted thinking, you’re in the right place.
Wendy Thomson’s career in commercial property was never carefully mapped out. It was built through curiosity, calculated risks, asking questions, changing direction and being prepared to have a go.
In this episode of In Conversations With…, Wendy turns the microphone around as Joel Rauer asks about the experiences behind her career, from starting a commercial property business with around $10,000, navigating partnerships and changing markets, to building long-standing client relationships and discovering a passion for education and training.
It’s a candid conversation about business, judgement, resilience, trust and the lessons that often come from the things that don’t go according to plan.
And after more than 35 years in commercial property, Wendy explains why she is still curious, still asking questions and still prepared to take the next step.
