This uniquely positions us to continue investing in our future and iterating on our industry-leading agent value proposition. I\u2019m excited to be the hands-on leader for the next period of growth for the company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sanford is replacing Jason Gesing as CEO. Gesing will be moving into \u201can expanded role\u201d as chief industry relations officer of eXp World Holdings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his new role, Gesing will oversee all brands under the eXp World Holdings umbrella, focusing on industry relations, metaverse advisory and environment, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives, according to eXp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Gesing will continue to serve on the eXp World Holdings board of directors. Gesing has been with eXp since 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According the firm, these C-suite changes \u201cintensify focus on building the next generation at eXp Realty, amid challenges in the real estate market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sanford\u2019s appointment as CEO of eXp Realty also comes nearly a year after a <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/why-mark-willis-isnt-free-to-join-exp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">court room battle erupted<\/a> when eXp attempted to appoint Mark Willis, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/willisleadership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the former CEO of Keller Williams<\/a>, to an executive role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to eXp\u2019s appointment of Willis, Keller Williams sued eXp and snared <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/keller-williams-names-ex-exp-president-stacey-onnen-to-executive-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Stacey Onnen<\/a>, the former president of operations at eXp, naming her the director of growth operations at Keller Williams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keller Williams argued in the suit that Willis, who served at Keller Williams CEO from 2005 to 2014, still has non-competition obligations in place, as he is currently the co-owner of two Keller Williams regions and a market center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Keller Williams\u2019 filings, this position enables Willis to have complete access to information provided to Keller Williams franchise owners, from granular financial metrics to client leads and overall business strategy. As such, Keller Williams argued Willis could share confidential information with eXp Realty, thereby inflicting \u201cirreparable damage\u201d on Keller Williams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe company filed this lawsuit to enforce the agreements and protect the interests of his franchise partners and Keller Williams,\u201d a brokerage spokesperson wrote in an emailed statement last February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Texas state court judge agreed with Keller Williams\u2019 stance, and in mid-February 2022, issued a <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/court-blocks-ex-keller-ceo-from-joining-exp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">temporary restraining order<\/a> prohibiting Willis from not just working with eXp \u2014 but from doing business with\u00a0<em>any<\/em>\u00a0real estate brokerage in the United States or Canada that directly competes with Keller Williams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am a strong proponent for agent and leadership mobility in the real estate industry,\u201d Sanford declared in a statement provided to <strong>RealTrends<\/strong> last February. \u201cWe are interested in engaging with Mark Willis because of his management experience and demonstrated leadership in the industry. eXp Realty has intervened in the lawsuit to protect its right to hire qualified real estate professionals and has no interest in any competitor\u2019s confidential information.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glenn Sanford will \u201cdrive the next phase of growth while iterating on the agent value proposition,\u201d according to an announcement from eXp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34740,"featured_media":4822,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3255],"tags":[],"coauthors":[1760],"class_list":["post-3836","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.4 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
