Скачать или смотреть The Real Estate Industry Is Broken — She's Fixing It from the Inside | Kevelyn Guzman

What if the secret to a thriving real estate brokerage wasn't more deals, but treating your agents like your most important clients? Kevelyn Guzman, Regional Vice President at Coldwell Banker Warburg, joins Sam Sells to break down the people-first leadership model that's transforming her organization from the inside out.

Kevelyn shares how prioritizing agent well-being over shareholder profits has led to stronger performance, better client outcomes, and a culture that top agents don't want to leave. She also gets real about what happens when trust breaks down — toxic environments, rapid turnover, and broken teams.

Plus, they dive into AI's growing role in real estate, from generating listing descriptions to streamlining reports, and why human critical thinking still can't be replaced.
