Leadership is not a position. It is a mindset and a way of life.

Take the first step

Louisiana REALTORS® recognizes leadership development as an essential element in the advancement of our Association and profession. The LR Leadership program is dedicated to broadening and enhancing our volunteer community and association leadership. This program provides a diverse group of REALTORS® with the opportunity to increase their network, knowledge and service.


Throughout the year, participants are required to attend a series of retreats that will help them grow personally and professionally. The retreats use personalized resource materials and group exercises to allow attendees to build their communications skills, as well as their goal-setting and team-building skills.


The program features prominent and stimulating speakers who encourage participation. Strong leaders build strong organizations. LR Leadership helps natural leaders unlock their potential, and these leaders become the backbone of Louisiana REALTORS®.

Who can apply?

Any member of Louisiana REALTORS® interested in the betterment of our Association, community and profession are eligible to participate in LR Leadership.
