The path from successful solo agent to Team Leader is exciting, challenging, motivating and sometimes...bumpy. It’s not easy to hand over parts of your business to someone else or to trust someone else with your clients. On top of that, a new Team Leader has to lead, manage, delegate, and mentor. It can feel overwhelming.

On this week’s podcast, I interview real estate team coach and trainer, Kathleen Metcalf. The President and Founder of Atlas Real Estate Coaching + Training, Kathleen, has seen it all. She was a real estate assistant, a top agent, a recruiter in real estate, an assistant to a top real estate coach, and for the last six years, a real estate coach and trainer herself.

If anyone has insight into what it takes to make a successful transition from agent to team leader, or from Assistant to Director of Operations, it is Kathleen.

In this episode:

  • [3:20] The new roles and responsibilities of a Team Leader (vs. solo Real Estate Agent)
  • [6:45] The difference between being a Manager and a Leader
  • [15:30] Common challenges for new leaders
  • [19:50] Some skills you can train and some skills you have to buy
  • [28:00] “You show people what to do, and then follow up on it, to confirm that what you thought is what you said, is what they heard, is what they understood.”
  • [35:00] The dark before the dawn
  • [46:10] How to help an Assistant transition into a leadership role on your team

Kathleen now has Alliance by Atlas, a way for admins to receive training alongside their agents.
