(Passion, Authenticity, Innovation, Growth, Excellence) core values do you identify with most, and why? <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s almost impossible to choose a single one! I am honestly such a mix of passion and innovation if I\u00a0had to choose. But from the beginning, all of these are what attracted me to the brand so ardently.\u00a0You can really get behind this list. None of these are just filler content, and you can feel it.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What are your favorite qualities in a customer?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The connection. The sooner you make the\u00a0connection,\u00a0the better the whole experience goes. It\u2019s the best way\u00a0to gauge the situation. If you lose it, you have to get it back before proceeding very far, or you are\u00a0just asking for problems. It\u2019s present before, during, and after the transaction, if you do it right. And\u00a0you will build an amazing business that can sustain the ups and downs of any market long-term.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What is the one characteristic that\u2019s helped you the most in your career?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Focused energy. Energy is contagious. People want to be a part of things that are full of energy. And focusing that energy\u00a0keeps you on your toes and keeps you pushing when you want to pull back. Also, the power of attraction it\u00a0provides is something you can\u2019t buy. You have it, or you don\u2019t.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What was the last book you read?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I&#8217;m such a geek when it comes to reading. I&#8217;m always reading something about marketing strategy or\u00a0design. I\u2019ve never been into story reading. If I\u2019m honest, I guess the last book I read was <em>Green Eggs\u00a0and Ham<\/em>. I read it to my son. The whole time I just thought about how Dr. Seuss had it all figured out\u00a0back in the day. I would&#8217;ve loved to collaborate with him on anything!<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>If you were not in real estate, what would you be doing?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I would probably work in design or marketing with a company that was pushing the envelope with\u00a0what it produced. As long as I had creative freedom, I would be okay. I just couldn&#8217;t have an office job\u00a0that didn&#8217;t change much.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What was the last song you heard that you couldn&#8217;t stop humming?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>&#8220;Human Nature&#8221; by Michael Jackson. I know, I know\u2026it just is what it is.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Who is your real-life hero?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Peter Drucker. The guy just knew what it took to make things happen. He understood logic in the\u00a0deepest form. He truly shaped the American business landscape.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What is your favorite motto?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u201cAll things are ready if the mind be so.\u201d I&#8217;ve loved this quote since the first time I read it. It actually came\u00a0from Shakespeare&#8217;s <em>Henry V<\/em>, but it was referenced in a marketing magazine I read a few years back. I\u00a0tell this to my agents all the time when they need to be lifted up.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>If you could sell a home in any market in the world, where would it be?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Probably somewhere in Europe, I would love to sell a huge castle or a sick French Chateau\u00a0\u2013\u00a0just to\u00a0say I did. LOL<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>What advice would you give your younger self starting out in real estate?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Collaborate. Use the experiences of others as much as possible until you&#8217;re too busy with your own.\u00a0This is the solution to exponentially increasing the speed of the learning curve.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leighton Dees Leighton Dees, chairman &amp;\u00a0CEO of\u00a0Better Homes and Gardens\u00ae\u00a0Real Estate Generations, in Mobile, AL,\u00a0answers ten questions with Clean Slate, and discusses\u00a0focused energy, the importance of building a connection with your clients,\u00a0and Michael Jackson.
