Twas the night before Christmas when all through the land
Agents were stirring, to see what was at hand.
The deals they were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that a closing soon would be there.
The clients were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of improvements danced in their heads;
The agents are ready to make them a list
Of items and repairs they could have missed.
When out on the road there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the laptop to see what was the matter.
Away to the office I drove really fast,
Tore open the door and got in at last.
The computer was on and the password I know
The wifi connected but the internet was slow.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But an onslaught of agents joining me here.
This little old team leader, so nimble and smart
I knew in a moment I was up for the part!
More rapid than fall throughs her team they came,
And she whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
Now, NANCY! now, RALPH! now, RITA and KIM!
On, JOANNA! on PERRY! on, RONALD and KEVIN!
To the top of production! to the top of their game!
Because VERONICA is there with marketing to proclaim.
As experts they educate people you know,
When they meet you your eyes will be all aglow,
Engaged and responsive the agents they flew,
With the right attitude, and the Team Leader too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard there were more
Carol and Walter were waiting at the door.
To welcome the team in their own special way.
Down at the board or at meetings each day.
She was dressed all in black, from her head to her shoes,
And her wisdom was ready to impart, the good news.
A bundle of tools she had ready to show
And she looked like a wizard all ready to go.
Her eyes – how they twinkled! her dimples how merry!
The Team with McGrath is like dessert with a cherry.
Confident and proud serving sellers and buyers
Calling and building rapport with such fire.
The knowledge and info imparted to teach,
As the team builds community with all whom they reach;
They cover the area called Hudson Valley,
That got them reviews on their websites they tally.
She was happy and glowing, and proud of the Team,
And smiled when they spoke of their dreams.
A wink of her eye and a twist of her head,
The team came to know they had nothing to dread;
She spoke not a word, but went straight to her task,
And filled in her partners to explain when they asked.
Researching and curating so agents will thrive!
People and systems and tools give them drive;
She sprang to her feet, to her team sent a text,
And away they all went to see what was next.
But I heard her exclaim, ere she drove out of sight,
HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD-NIGHT!
