Real Estate Expert John McGrath Speaks, Inspires at ActionCOACH Global Conference

Aug. 4, 2009 - PRLog -- SYDNEY – John McGrath, an Australian real estate expert, author and CEO of McGrath Estate Agents, spoke Sunday at ActionCOACH’s Global Conference (August 2-7).

McGrath took his company from a start-up in 1989 to become one of the most successful residential real estate companies in Australia. It sold $3.25 billion in residential property in Sydney in FY09.

In addition, he has won numerous awards for his achievements in the real estate business. In 2002, McGrath won the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award in the Services category; in 2003, he won a Centenary Medal for service to business; and in 2008, he was honored by the Real Estate Institute of NSW with the Woodrow Weight OBE Award for his outstanding contribution to the real estate industry.

With five books that have reached best-seller status, including “You Don’t Have To Be Born Brilliant” and “The Ultimate Guide to Real Estate,” ActionCOACH founder and CEO Brad Sugars said McGrath was a natural choice for a Global Conference speaker.

“John McGrath has worked hard in his industry, the real estate business, and his hard work has paid off,” Sugars said. “His success isn’t only proven by his best-selling books and his numerous awards, but also by his ability to raise the bar in the workplace and his commitment to his work.”
