Gimme Shelter: Hard Calls + Soft Skills From A Wall Street Trailblazer LeadingShe

    • Careers

Ivy Zelman, CEO of Zelman & Associates was an atypical Wall Street investment banker. There were few women on Wall Street in the early 1990s and she was not educated at an Ivy League school. Nonetheless, her determination, curiosity and ambition all helped her to build a successful career in her specialty of residential housing industry research. Ivy began Zelman & Associates in October, 2007 and is the top residential housing analyst in the country having predicted the housing crash of 2007-2008. Ivy just released her memoir book Gimme Shelter, which is a wonderfully written account of her journey. The book is about her life and career which is full of stories about sexism, sexual harassment, combining work and family as well as getting through very difficult times. Her story is a great account of what it’s like to navigate a career in a male-dominated field. What a great discussion with Ivy Zelman!
