Reflection 7

Part 1 – What podcast/interview did you listen to?

I listened to the Tim Ferriss Show. He was interviewing Gary Keller, co-founder of Keller Williams real estate company. I chose this one because I am currently reading The Millionaire Real Estate Agent by Gary Keller.

Part 2 – What type of questions did the interviewer ask? Or – what questions were answered?

Tim asked about his childhood and Gary answered. Gary had never originally planned to go to college but his parents wanted him to after a very brief attempt at being a musician. Tim also asked Gary why he decided to strike out on his own and what was one difficult situation he had face and how did he resolve it. Tims questions lead to anecdotes and are never just a yes or no response.

Part 3 – Who would you like to do your Informational Interview with this semester (mid-level in career; someone you could ask for 20 mins. from)? Draft up 5 – 10 questions you would ask them.

I would like to interview Heather Williams who I met with on Friday. She is the one who gave me the book I am reading  above. List of questions listed below.

  1. Why did you decide to go into real estate?
  2. How did you keep your business alive during the Great Recession?
  3. What are key skills needed in your industry?
  4. What is some advice you would give to a person wanting to get in the industry?
  5. How did you adapt your approach during COVID 19
