Welcome to Leading and Growing Your Real Estate Business, the podcast where we explore strategies, insights, and tools to help you thrive in the world of real estate and beyond. I'm your host, Coach James Short, and today we're diving into Part 2 of our interview series with Denis Preston from True Colours People Solutions. In this episode, Denis breaks down the power of being externally referenced in leadership roles and why it can have a huge impact on decision-making. You'll discover the essential traits that make externally referenced individuals exceptional leaders and managers—including their reliance on data, research, and collaboration—and why this makes them invaluable for making informed, strategic decisions. We also explore the key differences between externally and internally referenced people. Internally referenced team members often use their intuition and gut feelings in decision-making, which, as Denis explains, can sometimes lead to impulsive choices. He offers practical advice on how to balance these two reference types within a team through audits and structured hiring processes. If you're looking to build a resilient team and make smarter hiring choices, this episode is packed with insights on decision-making, team dynamics, and leadership strategy. Join us as Denis shares actionable steps to foster better business outcomes with the right mix of talent. Key Learnings from This Episode: *
In this episode of Leading and Growing Your Real Estate Business, I welcome back Denis Preston from True Color People Solutions. The episode focuses on: Identifying Top Salespeople: Denis explains how individuals with a low kinetic score (0-4) are less emotional, handle rejection better, and excel in sales and telemarketing roles, making them valuable assets for real estate teams. Sales Success Linked to Kinetic Scores: Backed by Dr. Martin Seligman's research, Denis highlights that lower kinetic scores strongly correlate with higher sales revenue, particularly in high-pressure industries like real estate. Optimism and Performance: The episode introduces the ABCDE model (Adversities, Beliefs, Consequences, Disputation, Energization) from positive psychology to help salespeople overcome challenges, build resilience, and increase productivity. Boosting Sales Teams: Profiling employees and integrating strategies like the ABCDE method can transform sales teams, helping real estate leaders improve hiring decisions and team performance. Further Learning: Denis references resources such as Dr. Martin Seligman's Authentic Happiness for those looking to explore these strategies in more depth.
