Rory Golod

President, Growth and Communications, 
Compass
2025 Rank: 107
With Golod as a leader focused on Compass’s growth, the company made big moves in 2024. After acquiring Louisiana-based Latter and Blum and Tennessee-based Parks Realty, the enterprise announced a fourth quarter deal with real estate giant At World Properties. Expected to close in early 2025, the agreement will help Compass retain its place as the U.S.’s largest brokerage by sales volume. Golod, who took on his growth and communications role in 2023, has been with Compass since 2014. He has held various roles across the company including chief of staff to founder and CEO Robert Reffkin.
