About this Event
Today Women's Council is a nationwide community of 13,000 real estate professionals who include many of the best and brightest in the business. The backbone of the Council is its network of more than 250 local and state networks in nearly 40 states with volunteer managers trained to position their groups as a business resource in their REALTOR® communities.
Women’s Council today includes award-winning business leadership programs, including the , a conference that provides incoming leaders of Networks the skills needed to be successful at this leadership opportunity, and a Women’s Council Leadership Institute that capitalizes on the 80+ year strength of carrying out the Council’s mission, to advance women as professionals and leaders in business, the industry and communities we serve. In addition to these leadership conferences, two national conferences are organized every year in May and November, together with the NAR so that members can take advantage of a “conference within a conference” that both respective organizations offer for leaders.
Business leadership education is also a core purpose of the Council today and the program provides members specific training in areas including presentation skills, running a business, negotiation skills, and networking and referrals. Newsletters such as Council Corner and various social media channels provide continuous and ongoing business leadership skill-building for its members.
Finally, at the foundation of all activities of the Women’s Council throughout its 80+ year history is business opportunities. Its “Member Finder” feature includes a full profile, bio, leadership experience, integration with member listings, and an online referral platform. And the data supports the business success of the members. Average commission income from Council member-to-member referrals is $15,000, with 54% of members referring business to each other annually. In the recent surveys the Council has done, the #1 reason cited for doing Women's Council member-to-member referrals is "Council membership means a high-level business leader who will follow through on client needs.".
