Cigars, Whiskey And Breakthroughs

There are two things that can make traditional brainstorming sessions ineffective: the rigid schedule and how it can sometimes feel forced. Most often than not, breakthroughs happen during our unstructured time. That’s why a lot of people would swear they thought of a cool idea during a hot shower. And there is a way for you to make these breakthroughs happen without fail.

In this episode of Mortgage Broker Acceleration, James Veigli and Ash Playsted talk about the value of having fun with your team. They explain why scheduling unstructured fun time with your team is vital for brokers. And they also share personal anecdotes as to how this simple strategy worked for them.
