Real Estate Entrepreneurs Organization Cleveland Debuts September 7 with Free Networking Event at Crowne Plaza Cleveland South

Cleveland, OH, August 25, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Eat, drink and network with local Real Estate Investors as Real Estate Entrepreneurs Organization Cleveland (REO Cleveland) debuts with their first networking event on Thursday, September 7th from 6pm – 9pm at Crowne Plaza Cleveland South in Independence. Admission to the event is free but advance registration is required.

The event will feature keynote speaker Eric Maddox. Eric, a recipient of the National Intelligence Medal of Achievement, Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) Director’s Award, Legion of Merit, and Bronze Star, for his direct role in the capture of Saddam Hussein. Eric is now a sought-after speaker and shares his wisdom, wit, and profound insight to audiences; oftentimes showing how many perceived failures lead forward – driving home that the key to success oftentimes remains elusive without skill development. During the event, audiences can learn the significance of empathy-based listening; a practice that helps identify fears and goals of all parties involved in a negotiating process. Through this practice, guests can enhance their listening and work towards better identifying the needs of clients, counterparts and superiors – to develop solutions to even the most complex problems.

“REO Cleveland was created to serve as a resource for both aspiring and veteran real estate investors, with a desire to invest in Northeast Ohio’s Real Estate market,” noted REO Cleveland principal Jill Banner. “The purpose of REO Cleveland isn’t to solely focus on industry trends but to provide a full menu of opportunities to these individuals - some who are making their foray into Real Estate investing - so that they can become as successful a possible.” Banner added: “We are extremely fortunate to have Eric Maddox in as our keynote speaker – Eric has a one-of-a-kind ability to reach diverse audiences and given his tremendous life accomplishments, who better to discuss the art of negotiation?”

About Eric Maddox
In 2003, Eric was the interrogator for a Delta Force team that led the hunt and capture of Saddam Hussein in Iraq. In his presentation, he walks the audience through the manhunt for the most wanted man in the world in the middle of a war zone. His hunt for Saddam went down to the very last day of his tour in Iraq. Eric created his own interrogation techniques that involve empathy, negotiation and compromise that were contrary to the military techniques of zero-sum game and intimidation. He also created a human link diagram process based on informal relationships, not formal positions of the enemy chain of command. Finally, he convinced his team that the disruptive factors of a war zone nullified previous notions the U.S. intelligence community believed with regard to the power structure of Saddam. He now teaches those empathy-based negotiation tactics to business leaders, so that they can strengthen their powers with clients and employees alike.
