Working with other's companies, my own companies or non-profits has given me extensive experience in organizational behavior. It has made me aware of leadership styles that really make a difference in an organization. There are a lot of negotiating skills I have gained working either through my agents or my own customers with real estate buyers and sellers as well as working with government agencies and non-profits. Volunteers in non-profits and real estate independent contractors have a lot in common. Unlike employees they can easily go elsewhere. Trying to get the most potential from either is both rewarding for the individual as well as the organization. That's something I've enjoyed being a part of.In real estate I enjoy helping customers with their needs; buying or selling. In particular, I have experience in international sales here and abroad. Having owned an international real estate office conditioned me to understand the special needs of non-USA buyers and sellers. I belong to several Boards of Realtor's giving me access to properties from Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami, Ft Myers, Naples and Marco Island - covering South Florida. I also enjoy working with Realtor's referring business to others as needed to accomplish what my customers are looking for.Taking practical experiences that I have learned over the years and using that in trainings has been very rewarding. My training schedule includes multiple trainings per week; in-person, via Zoom and recorded for future play. In particular I enjoy helping agents in creating their marketing plans and guiding them in their use of technology. Constantly stretching the minds of experienced and newer agents in elevating the level of customer service has been very rewarding. Fortunate to work with mostly experienced agents. Much easier to help agents grow when you have had similar experiences to share.Backgrounds includes President Marco Island Area Association of Realtors, Vice President Florida Realtors, seven years on Marco Island Planning Board, co-founder Marco Island Film Festival, President Collier County United Arts Council, Realtor of the Year.Look forward to the continued evolution of the real estate industry!
