Powerful insights from roomful of brave leaders
Thank you to all the real estate professionals who joined us at the 2023 RiSE Leadership Awakening conference in Sydney in March.
It was an incredible couple of days filled with great conversations, powerful insights, new learnings and lots of fun.
The RiSE Board would like to acknowledge that it was indeed a privilege to have such a roomful of brave leaders who actively participated in the two days of discussions.
LEADERS RISE TO CHALLENGE
RiSE Leadership Awakening 2023 was a two-day collaborative event attended by top calibre real estate executives who demonstrated they were prepared to be challenged about what makes a good leader.
Across two days of masterclasses, thought-provoking discussions and networking, we shone the light into the corners of the real estate industry to identify the behaviours, skills and leadership practises that support top-performing workplaces.
We explored the issues of modern leadership, reflected on the challenges we all face and drew upon the collective experience of real estate’s boldest thinkers.
Leadership Commitment Statement
Michael Sheargold + Sarah Bell + more than 130 of real estate’s top thinkers + a bunch of colourful Post-it NOTES = INSPIRATION!
After a two-hour Talking Circles workshop, the collective wisdom of the room was synthesised into an industry commitment statement.
“Together, we demand bold leaps to elevate our profession so that we constitute a community of professionals that is recognisable by the human-centric values of safety, respect, care, inclusion and a commitment to bravely challenging ourselves and striving to be better,” the statement reads.
“We empower the members of our community to be authentic, curious, innovative and kind.
“We tell an unafraid truth, no matter how inconvenient. In doing so, we will become proud and trustworthy within the communities we serve.”
We congratulate everyone who spoke openly, shared ideas and scribbled down notes to contribute to this piece.
