This week on the Power House podcast, HousingWire president Diego Sanchez sits down with the co-authors of the recently published real estate and mortgage guidebook, “Leadership Matters.” Fobby is also the SVP of Homecomings Mortgage & Equity, and Ginger is the founder of Edumarketing.

In today’s episode, they talk about why top performers don’t always make the best leaders, — especially in tough times — and discuss the critical role of training and communication in scaling leadership success across organizations.

Here's what you'll learn:

• Leadership is fundamental in all aspects of life, not just professional ones.
• Leaders are forged in challenging times, not in easy ones.
• There is a leadership deficit in the mortgage industry.
• Top performers are not always effective leaders.
• Effective, prepared communication is key during times of change.
• Giving back to the community enhances leadership impact.
