Authoritative, collaborative, transactional, democratic or laisses-faire, it must align with a leader\u2019s working style as well as the working styles that exist within their respective cohorts. The tricky part is that different team members respond differently to different tactics. One might prefer a more hands-off methodology whereas another might need some degree of micro-management. The best leaders are those who operate with agility and adaptability, maintaining a stronghold on their style but also adhering to various needs in the spirit of setting the team and its members up for sustainable success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Brooke Team, we\u2019ve found that our team members are particularly inspired by tactics that are rooted in group dialogue, reflection and experience sharing. We\u2019ve created the structure and the space necessary for operating with transparency while breaking down the silos that organically and not-so-organically take form when we\u2019re all so focused on our own clients and books of business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-first-things-first\">First things first<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our morning \u201cPump Up Calls,\u201d are a facet to this strategy that has been designed to align the professional with the personal, to engage hearts knowing that they will lead to engaged minds and ultimately, engaged actions.&nbsp; We start every session with a quick roll call. We ask attendees about their goals, wins and struggles. From there, we lean into a theme, one that feels relevant based on where we\u2019ve been, where we are and where we each hope to be. Facilitators rotate but their objective remains the same: inspire conversation through the sharing of experiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attendance is not a requirement. The turnout ebbs and flows but participation has gained consistent momentum as our agents become increasingly comfortable with sharing. Themes and topics are all over the board. We\u2019ve covered <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/applying-lessons-learned-to-adapt-to-a-competitive-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">professional development<\/a>, the importance of attitude and making big leaps, to name a few. We\u2019ve developed a more informed perspective about not just where we are as a team but <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/why-company-culture-remains-a-priority\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">who we are<\/a> as a team. We\u2019ve created a direct line of sight into what matters to our agents and in that, a sense of compassion as we all work to navigate both our professional and personal lives as the very best version of ourselves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the last thing we wanted to do was take up even more space on our agents\u2019 already stacked schedules, we found that the appetite to share and vent far outweighed the dread that often coincides with yet another meeting taking up precious calendar space. Folks dial in during their morning commutes, pup walks, school drop offs \u2014 the intention is to enhance our day-to-days, not to complicate them. We\u2019ve all embraced a \u201ccome as you are,\u201d mentality around these sessions, striking a critical chord between structure and authenticity. We want to see and hear it all. Nothing is off limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning from the pros<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve taken a page from &#8220;The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership&#8221; by Jim Dethmer, Diana Chapman and Kaley Warner Klemp. <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/what-are-housing-leaders-doing-that-youre-not-hw-annual\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Great leaders<\/a> learn to access three centers of intelligence: the head, the heart and the gut. By creating intentional space and sharing across all compartments of our lives, we\u2019ve found that we\u2019re no longer operating as strictly colleagues but instead, as human beings who share opinions, perspectives, hurdles, joys and ambitions. We\u2019ve broken down barriers through conversation and in that, the <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.realtrends.com\/blog\/articles\/whats-old-is-new-a-deep-dive-into-the-teamerage-revival\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">team members<\/a> who continue to show up have started to decipher and build upon their own leadership capabilities. They\u2019re learning from their <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/5-ways-to-nurture-a-strong-real-estate-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">seasoned and green colleagues<\/a> alike how best to handle business but also how to manage relationships while effectively functioning like true collaborators.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We haven\u2019t necessarily attached any KPIs to these calls. Right now, the focus is simply to hold space as we continue to talk shop and share parts of ourselves that were once upon a time checked at the office door. Perhaps the proof will remain in the new buzz that seems to be permeating our workspace. Perhaps results will forever be gauged by the newly formed synergies that exist between agents. Maybe I can track the effectiveness by keeping tabs on how many members of my team are now taking the initiative to track me down and ask questions. Regardless of how formal these Pump Up Calls become or informal they remain, one thing feels true \u2014 we all feel pretty dang <a href=\"https:\/\/preprod.housingwire.com\/articles\/10-powerful-mindset-secrets-for-motivation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">motivated<\/a> by the time we hang up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The best leaders are those who operate with agility and adaptability, but also setting the team and its members up for success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39478,"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":[3221],"class_list":["post-4619","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) -
