REALTORS® should attend First Wednesday on August 6th because conflict is inevitable in real estate—but how you handle it can define your professionalism, client relationships, and long-term success.

This session will equip you with practical tools to navigate tough conversations, de-escalate tensions, and turn conflict into collaboration. Whether you're working with clients, colleagues, or cooperating brokers, strong conflict resolution skills lead to smoother transactions, better communication, and a more positive reputation in the industry.

Invest in your ability to build trust, strengthen relationships, and grow your business through understanding and resolution, not confrontation.
