The Appraisal Institute is grappling with significant internal turmoil following sexual harassment allegations against its former director, Steinley. This controversy emerged after a New York Times report detailed claims from multiple women, including former president Cindy Chance, who accused Steinley of inappropriate behavior. Despite his denials, the fallout has led to a crisis of trust within the organization, prompting members to question the AI's alignment with their professional interests. Some appraisers have formed a new trade group in response to these fears of misrepresentation and mismanagement, calling for renewed adherence to best practices.
Konikoff emphasized that the well-being and trust of the Appraisal Institute takes precedence over individual actions, marking a significant shift in organizational priorities.
The Appraisal Institute faces mounting criticism from members who feel it is not adequately representing their interests, sparking the formation of a rival group.
