Jen Dillard to Address Scaling Strategies at Inman Connect 2026

Dillard, who leads the JDRE Team at Real Broker, built her reputation in the Columbia Gorge region by prioritizing sustainable growth. Her session will focus on the specific systems and personnel roles required to scale operations without the common trap of professional burnout. She aims to provide a blueprint for agents looking to expand their production while maintaining personal balance.

The three-day conference, scheduled for July 28–30, operates under the theme "The Reset Is Here. Build What's Next." Alongside Dillard, the event agenda includes high-level discussions on artificial intelligence, brokerage profitability, and consumer trust, featuring prominent figures such as National Association of Realtors CEO Nykia Wright. Dillard views the invitation to speak as a culmination of her decade-long journey from attendee to authority, emphasizing that her presentation will focus on the practical methodologies that fueled her own transition from a single agent to a multi-state operator.
