In today’s mortgage industry, change is the only constant. Leaders are expected to drive production, manage people, and navigate new tech, regulations, and market cycles all at once. But without a clear vision and a strong sense of purpose, even the best managers can find themselves stuck in reactive mode.

That’s why Knowledge Coop is proud to announce our new partnership with the leading coaching company, Building Champions—trusted by global brands like Nike, Chick-fil-A, and Wells Fargo. Together, we’re launching three brand-new leadership coaching courses built by elite coaches and tailored specifically for mortgage professionals. Whether you’re a branch manager, team lead, or someone aspiring to grow in your role, this is your opportunity to lead with clarity, consistency, and purpose.

Leadership Training Begins with Personal Growth

At Building Champions, the philosophy is simple:

Better humans make better leaders.

This belief goes beyond corporate buzzwords. It means that the most effective leaders aren’t just good at managing numbers. They’re self-aware, grounded in purpose, and genuinely passionate about serving people.

The mortgage business is often high-pressure and high-stakes. With every interest rate hike or compliance update, the landscape shifts. Leaders who operate without a strong foundation can easily become overwhelmed. Culture erodes. Vision drifts. People burn out.

We built these mortgage leadership training courses to combat that drift. They help mortgage professionals develop their leadership skills, build stronger teams, and cultivate businesses that thrive even when the market doesn’t.

Meet the Coaches Behind the Courses

Three powerhouse coaches from Building Champions will guide you along the way:

‍Daniel Harkavy
Founder and CEO of Building Champions, Daniel has spent 25+ years coaching leaders at companies like Nike and Chick-fil-A. He’s the bestselling author of Living Forward and The 7 Perspectives of Effective Leaders, and his leadership philosophy centers on the idea that self-leadership drives team leadership.

Greg Harkavy
Vice President of Coaching Services, Greg brings over 30 years of leadership experience, including top-producing years as a mortgage pro.
