MADISON, N.J., Nov. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Realogy Holdings Corp. (NYSE: RLGY), the leading and most integrated provider of residential real estate services in the United States, has once again been honored for its diverse board of directors by Women's Forum of New York. For the fourth time, Realogy was recognized by the organization for exceeding the national average of board seats held by women, specifically surpassing the 35 percent threshold of women on its board. Realogy was also recognized by the Executive Women of New Jersey's (EWNJ) in its 2021 "A Seat at the Table" report for its focus on diversity.

"Realogy is proud to be honored once again by the Women's Forum of New York for our commitment to representation and gender diversity on our corporate board," said Realogy Chief People Officer Tanya Reu-Narvaez. "In 2021, Realogy increased its female board representation to over 35 percent and we will continue our efforts to drive diversity across all segments of our organization and the larger real estate industry."

Women's Forum of New York recognizes companies that strive to attain gender balance on corporate boards. Earlier in the week, these companies were honored at the organization's Breakfast of Corporate Champions event, which spotlighted 243 companies that achieved the 35 percent or more female board representation threshold.

"After 10 years of tracking the numbers, we have seen impressive growth and significant advancement for gender parity and diversity in the leadership ranks of corporate America," said Janice Reals Ellig, chief executive officer of the recruiting firm Ellig Group and Breakfast of Corporate Champions chair and founder. "This issue has even greater relevance in 2021, and we're tremendously proud to celebrate an impressive collection of game-changing Corporate Champions who are determined to lead the way."

The recognition comes following Realogy's recent inclusion on Forbes list of  World's Top Female-Friendly Companies 2021, further showcasing the company's leadership in gender diversity and commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable culture.
