Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate (LuxuryRealEstate.com) to Partner with Prominent Business Coach: Industry Expert Liz Christoffersen to Speak on Secrets to Success in Turbulent Times

Favorite

Reno, NV—September 8, 2009—Empower Consulting Group, LLC, the strategy consulting firm formed by industry expert and turnaround specialist Liz Christoffersen, has formed an alliance with Luxury Real Estate to deliver strategic consulting, leadership development, and executive coaching services to members of the Luxury Real Estate network of brokers. This offering comes at a critical time in the real estate market, with sales still feeling for a market bottom, and the luxury tier being particularly hard hit.

This alliance enables Luxury Real Estate to expand its offering of marketing tools and resources to its elite member brokers. Through this partnership, Christoffersen will be able to share her expertise, techniques, and inspiration for succeeding in the current real estate environment.

After more than two decades as a seasoned real estate company COO, top flight sales trainer, and executive coach, Christoffersen formed Empower Consulting Group with a hand-picked group of experts to integrate her passion for business coaching with her real estate expertise. Her highly successful approach has more than doubled one real estate company's revenues within two years, and she developed and implemented the strategy that resulted in the successful close of $260 million in transactions during Q1 2009, a period of record declines.

"Strategy is only half the game," said Liz. "When you get the right people in the right seats, and they are crystal clear about the vision, the numbers just happen."

Christoffersen has become the driving force behind strategic planning and execution for some of the most magnificent luxury and resort real estate projects around the world. She is the person that executives at Intrawest, Re/Max, Prudential and Canyon Ranch call for creative solutions to challenges in the current real estate market.

Christoffersen will speak on the subject of "Leading the Real Estate Evolution" at the 14th Annual Luxury Real Estate Fall Conference, September 13-16, 2009, in Vail, CO.
