Paul Boomsma
Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, President & CEO
With over 25 years of experience in real estate, Paul Boomsma serves as president and CEO of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® (LeadingRE), a global real estate community of 550 real estate firms spanning six continents. He created the highly successful Luxury Portfolio International® division for LeadingRE, previously serving as its president. He also headed operations and strategic marketing for LeadingRE as COO.
Paul began his career marketing luxury office towers and later joined a top residential firm, before becoming national marketing director for a major franchise. Today, he is a frequent industry speaker on topics that include consumer trends, global business practices, and innovation in real estate. Among his many distinctions, he has been recognized for his leadership on numerous prestigious industry rankings, including RISMedia’s Newsmakers Hall of Fame, the Swanepoel Power 200, REAL Trends’ Game Changers, and Inman News’ Real Estate Influencers.
Paul is more than a global leader in real estate — he’s a longtime friend of Worthshop. Over the years, he has been a trusted voice in our community, offering perspectives that span continents yet speak directly to where we work. His ability to translate global market intelligence into ideas we can act on locally is part of what makes his presence at Worthshop so valuable.
This year’s theme, GROUND, is a natural fit for Paul’s work. He understands that in a profession defined by constant change, true stability comes from deep roots: relationships that cross borders, networks built on trust, and strategies anchored in values as much as in numbers. His leadership reflects the grounded strength of a global community, and his session will leave our audience with a clearer footing on where we stand — and where we can go next.
