Values, Brand, And The REALTOR® Code Of Ethics

March 27, 2014 By Jeff Turner 4 Comments

Mike Pennington added an “interesting” comment to yesterday’s post highlighting the difference between values and ethics  as it relates to values-based leadership. He said, “This confusion is especially true in professions where there is a written ‘Code of Ethics.’ Many times it ‘seems’ that the most successful are the ones who follow the code least often.” […]

People Don’t Want To Be Customers On Social Media

March 20, 2014 By Jeff Turner 7 Comments

We’re now seven or eight years into this “social media” thing, and the conversations around it are still the same. I bit on a tweet this morning from Laura Monroe, even though I tend to follow a simple rule popularized by Gahlord Dewald – “I stopped reading anything with a question in the headline.” In general, this […]
