In today’s episode, we have the pleasure to interview Erin Krueger, author of Capture the Culture: The Proven Plan to Rise Above the Challenges, Build a Powerhouse Team, & Take Your Business to the Next Level.

Erin is a nationally recognized real estate expert, bestselling author, and CEO of The Erin Krueger Team at Compass. After starting her career in corporate marketing, she became the #1 realtor in Tennessee and built one of the top-ranked real estate teams in the U.S., earning recognition from The Wall Street Journal and REAL Trends.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to build a winning culture that scales, the 4-step hiring system Erin uses to find and keep top talent, and how her unconventional entrepreneurial journey—from vending machines to $2 billion in real estate sales—can help you rise above the challenges in your own business.

We hope you enjoy this incredible conversation with Erin Krueger.
