NAR Choses Media Executive Nykia Wright As Their Interim CEO
The National Association of Realtors (NAR) has chosen Nykia Wright as its interim CEO, effective from November 20. Wright, formerly the CEO of the Chicago Sun-Times and a co-founder of SonicMessenger, a software-as-a-service startup focusing on measuring audience engagement through smart audio, brings her expertise from diverse fields.
Additionally, Wright serves on the boards of the American Cancer Society and the Better Government Association. She is also a member of the Dean’s Advisory Council at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth, her alma mater.
