The episode also touches on succession, industry evolution, and what may lie ahead as markets recover into the next cycle. For listeners interested in leadership, advisory businesses, and the evolving role of investment bankers in real estate, this conversation offers thoughtful perspective and practical insight.","meta_description":"In Part II of Leading Voices in Real Estate, host Matt Slepin continues his conversation with Roy March, CEO of Eastdil Secured, exploring what has made t…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4103,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/leading-voices-in-real-estate-221675/episodes/roy-march-eastdil-secured-part-2/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/leading-voices-in-real-estate-221675/roy-march-eastdil-secured-part-2.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
