The recently announced right to disconnect legislation is likely to have far reaching impact across most industries, but in real estate where incentive-based remuneration is the norm, is it likely to change anything for us?
REEF CEO Bryan Wilcox has said he doesn’t see it having a significant change on the real estate industry. ‘While a salesperson will certainly have the right to disconnect under the new legislation, it would seem unlikely that in practice they would choose to exercise that right, as it is probably going to have a detrimental impact on their commission earning capacity’ he said.
It’s also not expected to have much impact on property management staff as there are already arrangements in place to compensate them for out-of-hours work. Another option is to better leverage the always-evolving real estate technology to handle out-of-hours enquiries and work.
Today between 1.00pm and 2.00pm AEST the Alchemic Way is running a free webinar for real estate professionals. With a focus on mindset and leadership, CEO Tanja Lee will help you uncover hidden blocks and unlock your potential in real estate.
In this interactive session, Tanja will unpack:
- How we are unconsciously hardwired for struggle and not success
- What we believe determines how we behave and who we become
- The 5 handbrakes to your happiness and what’s parking your potential
- The number one key to personal alchemy
Lastly, it’s nearly 20 years since the devastating Boxing Day Tsunami in Thailand which led to
Peter Baines and his wife Claire forming the Hands Across The Water (HATW) charity.
What originally started as a charity to help the Thai children impacted by the Tsunami tragedy, today HAWT continues its great work in supporting Thai children in need and creating for them a life of choice rather than a life of chance.
I interviewed Peter Baines last year and he shared his advice for leading teams in difficult circumstances and how to better manage corporate and employee giving to bring the best out in your teams.
