Breakfast with John
Sharnee Commins
Senior Manager Human Capital (Adaptable Organisations) at Deloitte | Deloitte Inspiring Women 2023
It is always a great day when an Executive Chairman comes to visit. When you are lucky enough to have John Symond as your Executive Chairman, you turn that visit into an event, post haste!
The WA team have been working at full pace recently and there have been some stand- out Brokers on our floor that really needed the recognition for facing our difficult climate and just running at it anyway. John kindly gave us a good couple of hours of his time over breakfast and spoke to our Brokers about just that, the difficult climate that we are in here in WA and how they need to turn it into their success.
The message that resonated loud and clear for me was that Aussie has never been as successful as it is in times of hardship. Why? Because those are the times that relationships are built and forged. Now, John is a great speaker at the best of times and the knowledge that rests with him is extensive but stories of personal hardship and how he pulled through them are the ones that always sit best in my opinion. Our bunch of Brokers are not the quietest bunch normally but they hung on his every word, a room of silence.
John gave our Brokers a couple of tasks to take away with them. Rookies and Veterans alike, some key takeaways for the morning. Wouldn't you know it? An up and coming Broker that has recently joined our team followed his instructions to the letter with some great successes in the days following. Safe to say, those key pointers will be apart of his sales processes for many years to come now!
