Transcript

Welcome to another episode of Golden Nuggets Tea Entails powered by Husby, served by Tahir, now Tahir. In this industry, we learn our lessons from experiences that we go through, but also the people that we come across, whether they're clients or whether they're agents or Co agents or colleagues or our bosses. I want to know from you who has taught you the biggest lesson in your career. See, being a real estate in general, you learn a lot on daily basis. From clients, from agents, from

bosses, whoever. You learn a lot. But the biggest lesson I've learned from my current CE? OS you have multiple CE OS, Yeah. Three of them, bless them, they're amazing. They said something that I never heard it for the past nine years. Interesting. Being humble, OK? No matter how much money you're making to remain humble, you will attract success to you. You will attract more money. Remain humble. They they are very humble. They don't have this politics.

I'm the CEO. My office is closed. No, they are there 24/7 if you need them. If you're busy, they can go to the developer to book your unit. Every quarter they do this appreciation parties for the previous quarter. They are there in the middle of everyone. They're accessible. Very much. You text them, you call them at any time, they will answer, they will respond, they will give

more than 100% support. And I, I was chatting with one of them and he said the key to success is just to remain humble. Because all of us as aceos, we came from nothing. Money comes and goes, but being loved and being humble and being down to earth will remain forever. That's why it's happening. I just it kept to remind me how many agents they make like 250,000 Rolex and bought a car and they're like Kim K walking in Dubai. No, you remain humble no matter

how much million you're making. You just remain calm and down to earth. That was the biggest lesson and then and I just remember, remind myself every morning to stay humble, to stay humble, down to earth, friendly with everybody. What does that stop you from doing? Like, were you on the verge of buying a Rolls Royce or something? And then you were like, Oh no, I'm going to stay humble. How has this affected you and

your? No, it's just like because, because you see when, when I asked him for a favour, for example, it's like I'm his boss. But in a matter of fact it's the other way around. He is my boss. He should be asking me to do things. But no, he was the other way around. It's not like that. I was on a stage of buying a Rolls Royce, but it was, it's just like how the communication, it doesn't need a medium where I can have a manager and a

director. And it goes on the on the stereotype of Dubai of like your agent, you have a manager you have or a team leader or you have a director and then head of sales or vice president, it goes, no, you're directly to the CEO or whatever you, but just this humbleness. Yeah. And this is a conversation I've had before where actually sometimes even the agents might earning more money than their manager, may even be making more money than their CEO. Exactly.

In a year, not necessarily long term, but I do find and, and when I compare the UK to the UAEI do find that to some degree, yeah, the managers and the CEOs are working for the agents. Like the agents, especially the top agents, any company that you go to, the top agents are kind of orchestrating what happens in the company.

That's why for the top performing agents in the current company I'm working for, they have something is called the Millionaire Club where everybody achieved 1,000,000 plus they have their own special treatment from parking from special quote shows special marketing campaign, but they are still seated with everybody else and but that. Doesn't contradict the whole stay humble because.

In one break you're saying stay humble but it's remind them even though you are treated differently, you are on the same level everybody and you will remain humble because your target is not only to make 1,000,000 and that's it. Your target is your Sky's the limit. That's why it's consistent. And some people, they have arrogance in their nature. The minute they make 10,000 dirhams that they're like a lot. Snobby.

Yeah, snobby. No, but these CE OS are reminding, reminding people of stay humble, Yeah. So humble isn't just about material things. It's not just about like looking simple or not showing off or getting fancy things. It's also about your attitude. About your attitude. It's about not elevating yourself like I don't want to speak to this person or I'm

above that person. Yeah. And there is certain CE OS like I have a friend of mine work in this company without mentioning the name they he doesn't have access to the CEO even though if it's it's a small company and I was like we are more than 100 agents, but we have direct access to the CE OS and we can call them whenever we're not going to call them for chit chat or to Kiki with each other.

No, we if you need if you need a something because they are at the same time they are very well connected with the developers. If you need something, they will. Pick up the phone. Make one phone. Call yes and they will make sure it happened for you. If you're busy, if you are in a meeting and you need them to go to do something on behalf of you, they will do it and and it's always a success. They will praise you for the hard work instead of taking the credit because they did almost

like the labour work. They went there physically, not with the phone they deserve. That it's it's usually it's also because they've already built up their reputation or relationship with that client or the developer or whoever it may be that a phone call from them is going to be. And I noticed that they're they're very humble. So they started during during the pandemic, OK.

And the people who started with them, they are still in the same organization and the team is going bigger and bigger and bigger. And then when I joined the team and I asked who's the newest agent here, how far like the newest agent? And they were like, I think it's like 14 or 15 months. So they don't have the, the, the flip the turnover like the other agencies. Three months to six months when it no they the newest 1 was like. 14. Months old and they they make

you feel like comfortable. You don't need anything. All the connections are there all the technology which is very important isn't there in working in a brokerage. You need marketing and you need in house marketing and that's their own access directly to to them. You come with the ideas anything that they're like OK, do it. If you think this will help you, go ahead. Well done. We praise you for that and it teach me no matter how your CEO or owner or Co founder is just

to remain humble and accessible. It's it's something that. It's very. Important. It's very important and it teach me a lot like it's it leads to success. Well, we want to know from you, what do you expect from your CEO? Drop it in the comments. Thank you.
