Are you a broker, manager or team leader? Do you have these seven success traits?

If so, make the commitment to always maintain those qualities. If not, prioritize what you have to do to get those qualities.

If you’re an agent, does your broker, manager or team leader operate like this? If not, you might need to make some changes.

There’s a misconception that being a manager or team leader is the crowning achievement we should all aspire to. This is a dangerous slope because contrary to popular belief, the most successful brokers and managers don’t hide out in their office all day — they are putting their feet to the streets with clients and supporting their agents.

So, what are the top 7 things you need to evaluate yourself against? Where are you winning or falling short? We have some very practical and tactical ways you can turn around the performance in your office — and it starts with you!

Listen on for the lowdown on these first four traits and join us again for the conclusion of this series, where we’ll focus on teams vs. individuals, the things every broker must work with their salespeople on and what confidence from a leader really looks like.
