My name is Brittany Mann and was born in Vancouver, BC, Canada. I am very lucky to have my two parents who raised myself and my two sisters. I am a triplet and am a middle child by thirty whole seconds. I have fond memories growing up; eating supper together each night and going on camping trips. My mom is my best friend who is strong, is my supporter and is my role model. I recently got married in November 2017, and values his ability to be positive, his dedication, courage and persistence that all provide me a guiding light to revert to and to rely on.
As my PRINT report reveals; my unconscious motivators are to be strong and self-reliant (8 major) and to be special and find meaning in life (4). I find every day; I am growing as a more independent woman and I am motivated by results and making a difference.
Throughout my leadership journey, I have identified eight core values and virtues that shape me as a person. They are; making a difference and influencing change, empathy, achievement, dependability, courage, authenticity, persistence and generosity.
I have realized my core values for myself, my friends and family and my working career share commonality but are used in different ways. Within my group of family and friends, I am the go-to person for advice, planning events and am a shoulder to lean on. In my working career and my own personal values, I like to be the person to depend on to get things done, because it makes me feel valued.
Nonetheless, understanding my inner core values, virtues and who I am helps me understand what I need in relationships with others. I believe it is fundamental to understand what values I like and dislike and how my rewarding and challenging relationships shape my leadership abilities and strengths.
As I realize, people are not perfect. People’s flaws and insecurities are what make people human and authentic to society. As I have lived 31 years of life, I have realized, I need people who encompass positive characteristics and encompass positivity and harmony. I need people to aspire me, to challenge me, to make me want to give to them and to be my true self. Knowing myself, I love to give and to help others and I value people who do the same as well.
