(Greenwood Village, Colo., October 27, 2006) - Dave Liniger, co-founder and chairman of the board of RE/MAX International will serve as one of the panelists for RISMedia’s 11th Annual Power Broker Forum during the REALTORS® Conference & Expo in New Orleans. The session is open to all NAR attendees, and will be held at The Morial Convention Center on Friday, November 10th from 1-3 p.m.
“This changing market has brought with it new challenges,” says RISMedia president and CEO John Featherston. “To that end, we have once again brought together many of the top minds in the industry for this year’s Power Broker Forum. They will tackle the tough and topical issues facing today’s Realtors, and offer thoughts and ideas that brokers and agents can take back with them and implement in their own businesses.”
This year’s session - “Managing in a New Market” - is geared toward showing brokers and agents how to keep their businesses moving forward in a shifting market, from how Realtors can articulate and promote their skills and value to back-to-basics training for newer agents.
“The RISMedia Power Broker Forum always bring industry critical information to the forefront,” commented Liniger. “It’s a unique opportunity for all of us in real estate to share and learn not only what is happening currently, but also a variety of predictions for the future.”
Panelists will tackle tough industry issues, such as the media’s role in the changing market, the idea of a national MLS and the major issues involved in banks’ attempts to move into real estate. John Featherston and Jim Sherry, president of Innovative Solutions, will serve as moderators.
In addition to Liniger, other panelists include: Brian Buffini, chairman and founder of Buffini & Company; Earl Lee, president of Prudential Real Estate Affiliates; Alex E. Perriello, president & CEO of Realogy Franchise Group; Harley E. Rouda Jr., CEO and managing partner of Real Living; and Arthur Sterbcow, president of Latter & Blum Inc., Realtors.
