EXIT Regional Refresher Day 2

Day 2 for the EXIT Regional Refresher was a great day. Bob Mckinnon gave an excellent presentation to start the day. Then, he led a series of regional owners presentations to the overall group. It was fascinating to see the depth of the capabilities of the regional owners. The other aspect was the topic was the same, but the diversity of approaches was amazing.

Angel Tucker provided a training session on DISC personality analysis in the afternoon session. The only negative thing I have to say is that it was too short! Angel (playing with pain because of a broker foot) led the group in a focused discussion on the DISC attributes and the impact of them on the sales process. It was a fascinating discussion.

Christina Ireborg gave an update on Habitat For Humanity and the impact the money that EXIT Realty is pumping into that organization is having. As EXIT Realty grows, the number and frequency of the Habitat builds sponsored by EXIT is growing rapidly.

Tonight was a free night so Alan Dirks (EXIT Minnesota and EXIT Wisconsin) and I took a trip around the memorials in Washington. It has been a few years and I forgot how breathtaking the memorials are. The weight of history and the realization of the sacrifices of those that came before have an incredible impact. From the words of Abraham Lincoln to the Vietnam Memorial Wall.....you cannot visit here and not be affected.























I look forward to returning later this year for the convention to spend more time exploring Washington and soaking up the history of this incredible nation.

p.s. More pictures will be posted when I get back to Texas.
