EXIT Realty
Mississauga, ON

The CEO of EXIT Realty Corp. International, Canadian Division, Joyce Paron has played a leading role in establishing the company as one of the most trusted real estate brands in eastern Canada. Paron has received EXIT’s Leader’s Leader Award, among several others, and has been named one of the Swanepoel Report’s 100 most influential women in real estate.

Working at a company where the majority executives are women is a point of pride for Paron, who believes that “our resiliency, fortitude and deliberateness of vision have continued to drive us forward through difficult terrain. As a result, today we have incredible female role models who speak the truth of the camaraderie, mentoring, encouragement and support we provide to each other.”

Paron encourages female agents to focus on their strengths and surround themselves with talented colleagues who can fill in the gaps. “The approach of trying to do everything well simply waters you down, dulling your brilliance,” she says. “Go out and shine.”
