Life coach and speaker gives motivational talk.

It is situated in an extreme weather zone built to withstand the worst of mother nature’s onslaughts. In 1988 it withstood Hurricane Mitch – the second-deadliest Altantic hurricane on record while other infrastructure was devastated and over 11 000 fatalities were recorded. Dr Granger – considered one of the top leadership coaches and speakers asked what the point of an unbreakable bridge was, that lead nowhere.

In the brief but information-rich Broker track at Inman Connect panel on how office leaders can inspire success in their agents, Chorew and Barnes stressed that agents need to understand the value of systems to become successful, and those systems need to be centered under an entrepreneurial mindset, which isn’t common in many new agents, according to Barnes.
“Honestly, a lot of them kind of flounder a little bit, and that’s what drove me into my leadership position, and my passion for coaching and training and mentoring evolved out of that,” Barnes said.
