Ep 42: Leadership and Entrepreneurship

Chris Christofi has been in the financial industry since 1999, but it wasn’t always smooth sailing for the real estate mogul.

After a dissolved business partnership and some bad decisions, Chris found himself in $780,000 of debt. In order to come out on the other side, he had to sell all his assets, move in with his mother and rebuild his future. Spending years clearing his debts and decades developing the skills to become a respected leader, Chris found his feet again. 

Well known for his passion and accomplishments in finance and always leading with integrity and ethics, hear how Chris transformed his hardships into business opportunities and become a self-made entrepreneur. 

“I want to help as many Australians retire as financially as possible. When I saw what property did for me and my family, I wanted to share that with as many people as possible.” – Chris Christofi

Discussing their pathways, Robert and Chris dish what it’s like starting a business and how they maintain their status as trustworthy, knowledgeable and approachable leaders.

Finding your vision as a leader

Want to kick-start your entrepreneur career. Discovering your vision and following it are crucial steps in becoming a leader. Without embracing these key aspects of your business, it can be difficult to establish yourself as a pack leader in the industry.

The most important thing to remember is that it’s okay to show you’re human. Being approachable, available and understanding are all ways you can highlight your vulnerability as a leader and inspire others around you.

“I love adversity, I want to be put in a situation where it’s impossible to succeed and my thoughts become things. I always knew I would get back on my feet, and while there are days I want to throw the towel in, they’re the ones you grow from the most.” – Chris Christofi
