Jeff Glover, Founder of Live Unreal Companies, is pleased to announce the appointment of Kathy Schweitzer, one of Jeff’s first mentors, to their executive leadership team as Director of Sales, effective immediately. A graduate of the University of Michigan with a degree in communication, Kathy served as COO of Coldwell Banker Schweitzer Real Estate, where she hired Jeff as one of her Manager’s. Her success in leading Jeff & the rest of the leadership team at her 16 office brokerage led her to the Mike Ferry Organization where she was trained as a professional real estate coach. Jeff ended up hiring Kathy as his own coach, even after he was no longer with her firm.
After selling one of the most successful Real Estate firms in the Midwest at the time (and still is to this day), Kathy took on an opportunity as executive vice president of J Barrett & Company, where her focus was on coaching, training, mentoring, and recruitment. While in this role, Kathy utilized her skills to influence, educate and encourage agents and broker/owners to become their best professional selves.
Quick to identify needs—whether in charitable organizations, her firm, or through coaching—Kathy Schweitzer empowers individuals through a combination of intentional listening and positive reinforcement. “In her coaching,” says Jeff Glover, “Kathy has this rare ability to ask the tough questions that most of us are afraid to ask. It’s probably because she’s not afraid of the answers. A compassionate listener, she’s able to offer criticism in a way that helps individuals not only reach their potential but achieve that next level of career performance.” According to her husband Paul, she commits absolutely. In fact, he says with a quick laugh, “She’s like a dog on a bone. She simply never quits.”
Her ability to motivate others’ success is but one aspect of her multifaceted persona. A deep commitment to causes in which she believes defines her further, and gives a much fuller picture of the passionate community activist. “My greatest accomplishment,” she says, “and my proudest achievement was co-founding Child Safe Michigan, a nonprofit devoted to providing advocacy, mentoring, foster care, and adoption services for abused and neglected children. Thanks to the dedication of any extraordinary board of directors, it has grown into an important resource whose value to the community is inestimable.” Char Terry was there from the beginning. “Kathy got my ear on an airplane, and that was it.” Terry was soon on the board, and just as committed to the cause as her seatmate.
“When Kathy hops on a bandwagon—any bandwagon—you cannot get her off. When she hooks on to a cause or a passion, she is 100 percent there. I’ve always marveled at her ability to bring others aboard; I believe it’s one of her greatest skills. As a recruiter—of professionals for her firm or volunteers for her charitable causes—Kathy is, quite simply, the best.”
Kathy’s new role with the organization will include leading the team leaders of the brokerages Jeff is partnered with, leading the head coach of Glover U (in addition to coaching) and leading the sales director at Jeff’s real estate team.
Jeff Glover shared his thoughts after securing Kathy to their leadership team; "I was challenged six or seven years ago by Gary Keller to write down the name of someone that would make a massive difference in our business but is probably someone we could never get and I wrote Kathy’s name down. I quickly realized that we had to build the business to a point where we could attract someone like Kathy before aggressively pursuing her for this role." Said Glover.
“I am thrilled at the opportunity to take the brokerages, coaching company & the sales team to the next level. The foundation that has been built here is amazing and it is exciting to take over the sales leadership for an organization that already does an incredible job at training & developing and I can’t wait to build on what’s already been started, especially through working one on one with the leaders of each company.” Stated Schweitzer.
In addition to Kathy’s working life, Kathy finds physical and mental reward through exercise, skiing, snowshoeing, regular visits to the gym, hiking, and playing and watching football. She couples that with voracious reading, especially self-development, business and spiritual books. “I guess you can say,” Schweitzer admits, “that I love to push myself and grow mentally, spiritually and physically.”
How can you work with Kathy? She teaches Glover U group program Team Building: From Salesperson to CEO and she is available as a 1-on-1 real estate coach.
