Prior to serving as President and CEO of Coldwell Banker NRT LLC (now Realogy Brokerage Group LLC), Gorman served as Chief Strategy and Operating Officer and as its Senior Vice President, Strategic Operations, where he brought a heightened focus on service delivery, defined a comprehensive integrated growth strategy and leveraged the resources of NRT and Realogy to drive a superior experience for affiliated agents, employees and consumers.

David is the Chief Marketing Officer for Coldwell Banker where he positively influences consumers and the brand's global network on a mass scale from his management of world-class, award-winning advertising campaigns to elevating Coldwell Banker's digital footprint each year with his creativity in regard to content and video creation which has garnered well over 100 million video views. David has lead the development of the highest scoring advertisements in the real estate industry for 6 years running, according to AceMetrix.

As one whose email signature reads "Sent from the Batphone," this superhero, Star Wars and sports aficionado's interests outside of work do sometimes cross over into his professional life. Most recently, he championed an integrated brand campaign with the NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament, which banked over 38 million media impressions and showed the relationship between hoops and home is a slam dunk. He’s also passionate about using data to tell stories, delivering superpowers like predictive analytics and machine learning to the fingertips of the agents in the Coldwell Banker network through the revolutionary CBx Technology Suite.

Aside from transcending marketing and media into a new digital age, David is also a major influencer within the real estate industry. If David had a super power, it would be storytelling. He is the industry's top storyteller and combined with his natural ability for public speaking, he consistently delivers engaging and dynamic speeches that have earned him a top speaker designation within the real estate vertical as well as the marketing space.

David has an unparalleled talent for creating incredible content especially in the video arena and single handedly masterminded Coldwell Banker's content machine which draws millions of readers and social engagements every year.

As team leader for marketing, he is mentoring and grooming a team of digital natives who attribute their own success directly to what they have learned from him. David has had a profound impact in the real estate industry in each of his 17 years at Coldwell Banker where he has held almost every position within the marketing team.

And though his role as lead brand storyteller at Coldwell Banker is one that few others could ever fill, it is the stories shared at bedtime with his four boys that he's most proud of. At the end of the day, David goes home to Wonder Woman and his four superheroes in training, whom he's quietly grooming into Jedis.
