The Cost of Miscommunication: How Team Dysfunction Bleeds Profit in Real Estate
In today’s high-pressure real estate environment, deals don’t fall apart because of the market—they fall apart because teams are misaligned, overloaded, or operating on assumptions instead of clarity. In this session, former bomb technician turned communication strategist Lisa Meade Romero reveals how everyday miscommunication quietly drains profit, slows production, and fuels agent burnout. With her signature blend of precision, candor, and team specific insight, Lisa shows leaders and real estate professionals exactly where costly breakdowns occur—between agents and admin, agents and clients, and cross-functional partners—and delivers a strategy for restoring alignment, protecting production, and strengthening team trust.
