Alameda County
Welcome Message from the 2026 President – Women’s Council of REALTORS® – Alameda County Network
Dear Members, Strategic Partners, and Friends,
Welcome to the Women’s Council of REALTORS® Alameda County Network—where connection is our power, leadership is our promise, and together, we rise.
As real estate professionals, we know that success is never built alone. It is shaped through collaboration, trust, and the courage to lead with purpose. Here in Alameda County, we proudly embody the national mission of advancing women as business leaders in the real estate industry and in the communities we serve. Our work is rooted in professionalism, integrity, and a shared commitment to continuous growth—qualities that elevate not only our businesses, but our industry as a whole.
For years, our Network has demonstrated what is possible when passionate leaders come together. We have earned top recognitions—including the Landmark Award and multiple Local Network Certifications—because our members show up, support each other, and strive for excellence. And as we step into 2026 with our theme, Together We Rise, we carry forward that spirit of unity, inclusivity, and empowerment.
This year, our focus is simple yet powerful:
to cultivate leadership, strengthen professional credibility, and provide educational and networking experiences that help you grow—both personally and professionally.
Whether you join us for industry events, leadership development programs, or strategic partner collaborations, you will find a community that welcomes you, champions your success, and believes deeply in your potential. When you invest your time and energy into Women’s Council, you’re investing in yourself—and the impact is both meaningful and lasting.
As your 2026 President, I am honored to serve you. My door is always open, and I look forward to connecting with each of you, learning your stories, and supporting your leadership journey.
Here’s to a transformative year ahead.
Here’s to elevating one another.
Here’s to rising—together.
With gratitude and warmest regards,
Sophaline (Sophie) Mao
