- regarding EBS-

The „ULI School of Leadership powered by EBS“ demonstrates that ULI Germany

belongs to the leading real estate institutions and is directly involved in the continuous

development of its members along the complete professional cycle from management to

consultancy, from trainee, analysts or junior managers up to CEO and leading positions

such as senior consultant or partner. Recent surveys from renowned organizations

(Harvard Business Manager, CRF Institute, Die Welt) have shown that this approach

reflects the expectations professionals are placing towards institutions and employees.

The EBS enjoys an high standing and recognition amongst the real estate and the

financial industries across Germany. The new cooperation will enhance reputation for both

institutions particularly amongst the professional environment of real estate specialists.

The EBS real estate department has grown continuously since 2009 and is one of the

fastest growing real estate research institutions in Europe. This delivers the basis for

academic excellence in professional development of employees at higher organizational

managerial levels.
