Real Estate Institute of Queensland Summit

As real estate professionals we constantly strive to be the best consultants we can be for our clients. Keeping up with today’s market requires dedication to sector research and professional development. That’s why we are looking forward to the Real Estate Institute of Queensland’s (REIQ) 2016 Summit. The REIQ 2016 Summit looks primed to provide valuable insight for both sales and property management teams.

Of particular interest this year is the significant number of talks surrounding the influence of behavioural and mental factors in our professional success. Utilising contemporary scientific advances in understanding the dynamics of neurobiology and the effects of the mind on our behaviour, the Summit will present ideas on the control we have over our own brains and the benefits we can gain from that awareness and capacity. We are looking forward to further meditations on how we can actually program ourselves to become more effective. There will be a discussion by Dr Dianne Harner from Clever Minds Consulting titled Neuroscience for better Business.

With the intent to take a practical view of what underpins human behaviour and therefore what motivates and drives us professionally the Clever Minds website offers this direct quote to sum up why neuroscience is important to be aware of in today’s market place across all sectors: “Every thought, belief, action, emotion, motivation and behaviour is orchestrated by our brain so it makes sense that we understand how it works and why we do, what we do.”

Another dominant theme standing out on the summits program is with regard to legislative updates across several areas of relevant law governing property management. These include updates to the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal process ensuring our property managers can represent you and your investment in the event of a tenant dispute. Also covered will be advances in best practice and legal obligations for estate appointments as exclusive agents.
