The White Report | June 2022 | Page 40

Ray White Managing Director Dan White ( pictured left ) spoke to the Chairman ’ s Elite level business owners about ‘ disorder ideas ’ that needed to be implemented into their businesses .
He said the fact was that many average real estate businesses haven ’ t changed much in 10 years .
“ Leadership , family experience and our network effects are our three biggest competitive advantages . Our tech tools are designed to give more time back to our people , and that ’ s why we ’ re building out NurtureCloud and it ’ s only going to get bigger and better as it evolves ,” he said .
“ NurtureCloud is essentially a leadership tool to help our owners make better decisions .
“ Nothing good happens in a real estate business without a good leader . Nothing happens in our company without good leadership , we see that time and time again . The more we use these things the better it gets .”
A highlight of the two day conference was a case study session with renowned Boston-based Professor Boris Groysberg of Harvard Business School ( pictured below ). Prof Groysberg teaches courses on talent management and leadership in the school ’ s MBA and Executive Education programs .
Ray White Marsden , Ray White AKG and Ray White Daisy Hill business owner Avi Khan ( pictured left ) has built very high performing teams in only four years and is committed to his whole team having a growth mindset .
He said he got a lot of value out of the sharing of ideas with his fellow owners at the Chairman ’ s Elite Business Leaders Forum .
Avi said that when and if anyone ever chooses to leave him , it will be with a
“ bouquet of flowers , not a lawsuit ”. His staff are welcome to take their database , their listings and he ’ ll help them open their own business . This generous growth focus was crucial to his success so far .
“ The industry looks not just at who joins you but who leaves you . Our team members exit with love . No-one stays more than five to seven years , we talk about that on the way in ,” Avi said .
