Summary
The Real Estate Leadership Unlocked Podcast is the go-to podcast for brokerage leaders who are serious about building profitable, scalable businesses — without the fluff. Hosted by Debbie Lariviere, founder of Monter Coaching and strategic advisor to some of North America's top-performing brokerages, this show dives into the real conversations that rarely happen in real estate: leadership accountability, hiring mistakes, financial blind spots, and the systems that actually drive growth. If you're a broker/owner, team leader, or executive ready to level up your business, this podcast will challenge your thinking, sharpen your strategy, and help you lead with metrics — not emotion. Expect candid solo episodes, expert guest interviews, and real-world case studies pulled straight from Debbie's coaching work with mid-to-large brokerages doing $75M+ in volume. This isn't another hype-filled agent podcast. This is where transformational brokerage leadership gets unlocked. Debbie Lariviere is the owner and founder of Monter Coaching, where we believe leadership roles significantly impact an organization's culture, driving toward a more inclusive and equitable environment. This shift not only helps in attracting and retaining top talent from all backgrounds but also resonates with a diverse customer base, improving customer satisfaction and loyalty.Monter Coaching, 2025 Economics Leadership Management & Leadership Personal Finance

    9 Sep 2026

  • The Business Behind $80M in Annual Real Estate Sales with Ben Faber
    18 Aug 2026

    What does it take to produce more than $80 million in annual real estate sales while building a business that is organized, efficient, and less dependent on one person?

    In this episode of Real Estate Leadership Unlocked, Debbie Lariviere speaks with Ben Faber, Broker Associate, REALTOR®, and Team Leader of the Faber Real Estate Team at Compass in Marin County, California.

    Ben shares how he moved from completing two transactions during his first six months in real estate to leading a top-producing business built around relationships, administrative leverage, documented systems, and data-driven advice.

    In this episode, Debbie and Ben discuss:

    • Shifting from a self-employed agent mindset to thinking like a CEO
    • Determining which responsibilities require your license and expertise
    • Hiring administrative support before adding more sales agents
    • Turning checklists into assignable workflows
    • Delegating without weakening the client relationship
    • Increasing profitability by evaluating dollar per hour
    • Using market data to guide seller pricing decisions
    • Auditing your time to identify gaps in the business
    • Building a company with value beyond the owner
    • Balancing the roles of salesperson, leader, operator, and visionary

    Ben also shares an important reminder for every real estate professional: systems can create capacity, but relationships cannot be delegated.
