DREAM TEAM

LORI GLATTLY and her daughter-in-law, COURTNEY GLATTLY, have come together to create a dream team that represents excellence and distinction. As the Glattly Group with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Chicago, they have combined their diverse professional backgrounds, complementary skills, and vast resources to deliver results that exceed clients’ objectives. These driven professionals are passionate about solving real estate needs and are able to anticipate solutions that will help their clients make the most effective and efficient decisions.

What does the idea of power mean to you? We believe power is achieved by striving for excellence, both personally and professionally. We hope we are known as women of integrity and character who are knowledgeable, yet humble. When you embody these traits on the inside, it is reflected outwardly.

How should women support other women? Even though we are in a very competitive environment, we believe it’s so important to come alongside each other. Success is independent and does not come at the detriment of others, so promote each other and celebrate together. Raise a glass and toast each other—it’s far more fun than drinking alone.

What is the most important characteristic of an effective leader? Integrity. It is the foundation of trust and respect. It is the force that drives us and is what has helped us create a consistent, sustainable business.

What meaningful lesson did you learn in your first job? It’s OK to say, “I don’t have that answer, but let me find out.”

What was a pivotal moment in your career? When we officially formed the Glattly Group in 2013. Coming from diverse backgrounds that complemented each other’s skill sets, we built our business on the shared notion of keeping our clients’ best interests at the forefront.
