Coldwell Banker Chandler Barton Spirit Award
Gökhan Taş, president, Coldwell Banker Turkey in Istanbul, Turkey

Named after the late Chandler Barton, president and chief executive officer for Coldwell Banker Real Estate from 1989 to 1996, this accolade honors a sales, associate, manager, broker, or owner who exemplifies the legendary "can do" attitude of Chandler Barton. Barton passed away in 2017 but his ongoing legacy leaves a lasting impression on the Coldwell Banker network, inspiring them to overcome obstacles and achieve goals.

Gökhan Taş’s passion for sales introduced him to the real estate industry in 2006 where he started out as a broker after finishing medical school. After deciding that selling real estate was his true passion, Taş began to pursue his dream. Three years into his career, he ranked as the number one commercial sales agent for both Turkey and Europe and in 2013 joined Coldwell Banker as President of Coldwell Banker Turkey. In just four years leading Coldwell Banker Turkey, Taş has grown the brand from six offices to 125 with a network of 1,500 real estate professionals in an especially challenging time for Turkey. Despite the turbulence the country has faced over the past two years, Taş has persevered, determined to exemplify the profound strength of his nation.
