Chris Leader

Master Trainer

Passionate, humble, entertaining … all of the traits you want in a trainer! Students rave about how they connect with Chris’s down-to-earth style and they can trust what he teaches because he has truly walked a mile in their shoes.

To call Chris Leader an entrepreneur is an understatement. By the age of 24, he was a successful Realtor^® and broker-owner. When most people were just getting their first job, Chris was busy turning a non-profitable real estate company into the top office in his market. At the same time, he was a partner in a mortgage brokerage and ran it successfully for a number of years.

With these achievements under his belt, Chris took over the management of one of the largest real estate offices in Toronto. This experience led him to his true calling – training. Before the age of 35, Chris dedicated himself to educating the industry and became a top trainer for a major international training company. His dream, however, was to launch his own training company and in 2008 Leader’s Edge Training was born.

Today, Chris is a highly sought-after speaker, trainer, coach, and consultant. His energy and expertise allow him to train some of the industry’s best professionals. The appreciation and success of his students is testament to his quality and dedication. Using his unique combination of real estate and mortgage expertise, Chris provides state-of-the-art training and consultation services for real estate professionals and managers all over North America.
