In this episode of Zonda’s Inspirational Leadership Series, host Mollie Carmichael sits down with Uri Man, CEO of Lagoon Development Company, to explore how his team is transforming real estate—one lagoon at a time.
Uri shares how his upbringing as the son of Israeli immigrants shaped his relentless drive, and how a chance encounter with Crystal Lagoons technology inspired a bold vision: bring beachfront living to inland communities.
Now a leading developer of lagoon-centered masterplans, Uri’s projects like Balmoral and Lago Mar are boosting home sales, attracting top builders, and redefining what it means to build community. His latest venture? A partnership with Sports Illustrated to bring the first Sports Illustrated Resort to Texas.
