Summer Summit Prepares Future Real Estate Leaders

Monroe Twp, NJ (August 19, 2016) — Stephanie Bellanova and Scott Lauri of ERA Central in Monroe Twp, NJ  recently attended ERA Real Estate’s 2016 Young Leaders Network Summer Summit, an elite educational event hosted in Birmingham, Alabama by ERA King Real Estate, a 2016 Circle of Light for Community Leadership Award Winner and Gene Francis Memorial Award for Top All-Around Company finalist. Attendees represented many of the most successful ERA organizations nationwide.

Over the three-day long event, Bellanova and Lauri along with 20+ other Young Leaders participated in team-building and motivational exercises focused on succession planning, growth and leveraging cutting-edge tools. Each attendee was personally selected for this exclusive networking opportunity by ERA’s senior leadership team, whose decision was based in large part on the management abilities each member has demonstrated at their respective companies.

Bellanova and Lauri were chosen as a member of the Young Leaders Network for their success in growing their company, “The Summer Summit provided the opportunity for the group of us to absorb insight from and ask questions of some of the top professionals in the ERA network,” Lauri said. “We talked about everything from market expansion and the latest in ERA’s resources to creating agent value and succession planning, and I look forward to adopting our collective learnings in the Central New Jersey market.”

“This year’s Young Leader’s Network Summer Summit marked our fifth annual gathering, and the amount of knowledge sharing and collaboration that took place was incredible,” said Sue Yannaccone, chief operating officer, ERA Franchise Systems LLC. “Our Young Leaders are eager to keep the real estate industry looking and moving forward, and we at ERA are proud to offer these opportunities for them to continue to do so.”

The Young Leader’s Network was launched in 2012 as a way for ERA Real Estate to bring together ERA professionals showing highly-engaged and collaborative characteristics early in their careers, in an effort to further develop their leadership skills. The members are mostly made up of Gen Y or millennials who leverage this supportive community to discuss overcoming challenges and formulating business solutions.

“We firmly believe in acting as partners for our young professionals, to help them grow and develop into the next generation of industry and ERA leaders,” said Everett King, broker/owner of ERA King Real Estate. “We were proud to be chosen as the hosts of the fifth annual Summer Summit and thoroughly enjoyed the discussion around real estate’s future that took place.”

ERA Central Supports Move For Hunger

ERA Real Estate’s International Business Conference just ended and we were happy to see the excitement generated when the ERA family learned about Move For Hunger.

We met Max Lowy, Real Estate Program Director for Move For Hunger last month and knew that their mission was a perfect fit for our company and our agents. Move For Hunger is a non-profit organization that works with relocation companies across North America to pick up unwanted, unopened food from those who are relocating and deliver it to local food banks. To date, Move For Hunger is working with nearly 600 movers and 5500 Realtors in 47 states and has collected more than 2,400,000 pounds of food!

When asked about how real estate could help the Move For Hunger mission, Max said, “The opportunity for impact is incredible. Imagine if the industry truly put its full support behind this. We would do something that no hunger-relief organization has ever done before: create a sustainable, year-round program to address hunger in this country. If this is happening every day and can be supported by companies like ERA Real Estate , and state associations – then this will become the industry standard.”

ERA Central pledged our support on the spot and encouraged Move For Hunger to come the ERA IBC in Los Angeles to share their mission with ERA brokers worldwide.  Max and Ben received a warm Team ERA welcome  –  we’re excited to be working with them to help New Jersey families in need put food on their tables.

They’re packing their bags right about now  –  two of our fearless leaders off to face a few fears head on for a cause you may have heard of, but not fully appreciated.

Stephanie and Linda are leaving tomorrow to complete a Tough Mudder in Florida and will join a team of ERA agents, brokers and staff – all getting down and dirty to raise funds for the Wounded Warriors Project.  

The Wounded Warriors Project (WWP) has a simple mission –  To honor and empower wounded warriors.      They strive every day to fulfill this mission:

  • To raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of injured service members.
  • To help injured service members aid and assist each other.
  • To provide unique, direct programs and services to meet the needs of injured service members.

You can learn more on the WWP website and get to know some of the warriors they’ve been able to help.

Stephanie and Linda have been training and fundraising for months to be ready for this event.  We are super proud of them and can’t wait to share their journey with them.   Join us in cheering them on (you know by now that ERA is all about the team)….we’re behind you every step of the way!  Go TEAM ERA!
