Nominations for the 2026 Women of Influence awards are open now through May 31.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HousingWire: What are you most focused on right now for the industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurie Mecier-Brochu:<\/strong> My priority is always the same at its core: How do I best support our advisers and staff so they can thrive, especially during times of change. The market will always shift and the industry will always evolve, but if I stay focused on equipping our people with tools, training, communication and clarity, we can navigate anything.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, I\u2019m very intentional about strategic growth. It\u2019s not growth for growth\u2019s sake, but thoughtful, sustainable growth that supports the long-term health and stability of our company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HW: What\u2019s one leadership lesson you\u2019ve learned that more people in this industry should understand?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurie Mecier-Brochu:<\/strong> You will never make a decision that everyone agrees with \u2014 and that\u2019s OK. Leadership isn\u2019t about winning a popularity contest; it\u2019s about making thoughtful, informed choices and then having the courage to stand by them.<\/p>\n<p>When you genuinely believe a decision is in the best interest of your company and your people, you need to own it. Listen, adjust when warranted, but don\u2019t let fear of disagreement keep you from leading. <\/p>\n<p><strong>HW: What\u2019s one decision that changed the trajectory of your career?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurie Mecier-Brochu:<\/strong> Choosing to step away from a very successful sales career and move into leadership completely changed my path. At the time, it felt risky to leave something I was thriving in, but it opened the door to new levels of influence and impact.<\/p>\n<p>That one decision set me on the journey through various leadership roles and ultimately into the CEO seat. It taught me that sometimes you have to let go of something good to reach for something even better. <\/p>\n<p><strong>HousingWire: Looking back, what experiences most prepared you for the leadership role you\u2019re in today?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurie Mecier-Brochu:<\/strong> Several experiences layered together really prepared me.<\/p>\n<p>My involvement in the Realtor organization through committees and leadership roles gave me a deep understanding of the rules, ethics and logistics that underpin our industry.<\/p>\n<p>Serving at the local board level exposed me to a wide range of brokerage models and business strategies, which helped me appreciate that there isn\u2019t just one \u201cright\u201d way to build a successful company.<\/p>\n<p>And honestly, growing up in a large family was incredible training. You learn to communicate clearly, negotiate constantly, and function in busy, sometimes chaotic environments \u2014 skills that translate beautifully into real estate leadership.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HousingWire: What advice would you give to the next generation of women working toward senior leadership roles in housing?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Laurie Mecier-Brochu:<\/strong> Do not talk yourself out of opportunities by questioning whether you \u201cbelong\u201d at the table. If you\u2019ve done the work, built your skills and gained the experience, you deserve to be there \u2014 full stop.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, no one at that table knows everything. Your perspective, your expertise and your voice are needed. Speak up, ask the questions, share your ideas. The industry is better when women in leadership show up fully and unapologetically.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.housingwire.com\/womenofinfluence\/\">\u043a\u043b\u0438\u043a\u043d\u0438\u0442\u0435 \u0441\u044e\u0434\u0430<\/a><\/strong> to nominate a 2026 Woman of Influence. <\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of HousingWire\u2019s Editor\u2019s Choice awards spotlight series, we\u2019re spotlighting past\u00a0Women of Influence\u00a0honorees whose careers, leadership and insights continue to influence the industry.
