One of the leadership topics they talk about at Buffini & Company is the difference between teaching, training, mentoring and coaching. People often use these terms interchangeably. During this episode, Terri King, Chief Customer Officer at Buffini & Company explains how they see teaching as a transfer of knowledge, training is a transfer of skill, mentoring is a transfer of experience, and coaching is unlocking a personâs potential. A teacher, trainer and mentor will give a person advice, insights, and action steps to take, but if the person doesnât take action, it ends with inaction. A coach stays in there, works to help remove those things that get in our way, and champions the person to achieve great things. As leaders we sometimes wear all these hats! It helps to know which role weâre playing.

In Gulf Shores, AL, real estate is a family affair. After years in the construction business, Tom started his real estate sales career and built a significant presence in the coastal area. When he and his wife, Toni Stanton, discovered EXIT Realty, the model fit their values, and over the years they have built an excellent brokerage.
When their son, Tommy, graduated from Troy University uncertain about his future and having no interest in the family business, he was asked to help with organizational projects.

During our conversation we hear how Diana Zaya spent her first year as a starving real estate agent working hard, marketing, networking, holding open houses, and answering the phone, all without a sale. Her persistence led to multiple millions in sales by her third year in the business.
After taking some time away from the industry she came back to real estate on the affiliate side and worked in various roles. Her latest role on the data analytics side gave her a sneak peek into what was missing once brokers had the data. They did not know what to do with it or how to follow through and follow back within 3, 6, 12, or even 18 months.
So, after some frustration and months of planning, MaverickRE Consulting was created. Diana took the leap and started her own company focused on helping brokers create and nurture systems and incentivize strategies for better agent recruitment and retention outcomes to grow their brokerages. Hers is a true story of find the need and fill the need. You will not want to miss this opportunity to hear the rest. -
