039 Jerry Rader: What Will You Do With Your Dash?


Listen Later

Jerry is a husband, father, and 26-year veteran of the mortgage industry. He has been married to his college sweetheart Michelle for 31 years and they have lived and raised their family of 5 children in the rolling hills of central Maryland for the last 22 years. He and Michelle founded Corridor Mortgage Group in the fall of 2000 and grew the company from 8 employees to a team of 150. In October 0f 2018 Jerry led the entire Corridor family through a transition to SWBC Mortgage where he serves as a Senior Vice President on the SWBC leadership team.

 

In this episode Jason and Jerry discuss:

  • Living an integrated life and the realization that home, work and faith are all integrated, not separate.
  • Checking the hard and difficult things off your checklist first.
  • Being willing to work harder than the next person in line to be successful.
  • Being alert and looking for opportunities to engage others. 

 

Key Takeaways: 

  • Never make assumptions about your employees; they are people, not assets.
  • The decision for people to leave or stay with a company has more to do with their confidence in and the integrity of leadership, and whether or not they will be able to make a difference in people’s lives.
  • Embrace change that takes you outside of your comfort zone—that will lead to the most growth.

 

I wanna do everything I can with that dash or that piece of life on this earth that I’m given to make a difference.” - Jerry Rader
