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\u00a0have 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 my role model.\u00a0 I recently got married in November 2017, and I value\u00a0his ability to\u00a0be positive, his\u00a0dedication, courage and persistence that all provide me a guiding light to revert to and to rely on.<\/p>\n
I work in the field of Human Resources and have been within my organization for over five years. I have been in the industry\u00a0nine years and view Human Resources as an opportunity to strategically partner with my business to engage, motivate and transform individuals.\u00a0 By having a diversified personality and having the ability to form relationships, I believe this course will allow me to learn more about being strategic.<\/p>\n
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\u00a0I am\u00a0becoming more self-reliant as well.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
I have realized my core values for myself, my friends and family and my working career share commonalities 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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
I realize, people are not perfect. People\u2019s 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\u00a0encompass 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.<\/p>\n
What makes me happy and tick is surrounding myself with my family, husband and close friends who understand me. I love trying new adventures and have choosen to go out of my comfort zone lately. I went on the Revelation ride at the PNE this summer, jumped off a 32 foot tree in LDRS 502, and reached out to my organizations\u2019 new Vice President and implemented ideas and intitaitives to engage our employees. As a result of me speaking up to him and planting my ideas, I was given the opportunity to speak in front of the senior leadership team (including him) and all of our employees and facilitated a presentation I crafted. The feeling of taking a chance and letting go of your fears is truly a rush of excitement and the feeling of \u201cwhat\u2019s next\u2019.<\/p>\n
One of my favorite quotes is \u201cdo not give up, the beginning is always the hardest part\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
