Robin White - Leader Courtny Moody - Scribe Amy Good - Member

=Robin White - Leader= Hello! My name is Robin and I live in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, not far from Washington, DC. I come from a background of venture capital work, accounting, and the real estate/construction world. My leadership style is one of coaching, mentoring and making sure everyone has the tools WE need to succeed as a team. I’ve spent the last 10 years working in a fulfilling non-profit environment where helping others succeed brought much joy and a sense of satisfaction. I’m really excited to join Lifebushido and know there are some enthusiastic people who believe in exceeding expectations and would love to take this journey with me.


 * My Perfect Job**

The perfect job would be one where I am able to help others succeed and thrive. I love to exceed customer expectations, solve problems and don’t mind a fast-paced environment. I love interacting with other people, although can work quietly alone. I love to be challenged with new ideas and concepts and develop a process to see a concept work properly.

 * My Unique Talents**

I believe my unique talents are to be able to find the good in any situation and turn a negative into a positive. I love to be able to turn a situation or project around to have a positive outcome for everyone. I also have a talent for finding what I call a 3-way win in situations. By that I mean, where all parties feel satisfied and happy with the outcome of a project or task. I also have the talent for building relationships and building a cohesive team that works together for a common goal. I love seeing what a group of people working together can do.

//Graceful Giraffe//  The word “grace” tends to vary in meaning from one person or situation to another, often depending upon the context in which it is used. While many see the grace of the giraffe in human-like terms such as elegance, charm, or a positive attitude, others consider it to be divine in origin. They believe that it represents that indispensable gift for the development, improvement, and expansion of one’s character.

 No matter how you see it, grace is a disposition that requires compassion toward others and the desire to extend goodwill. It incorporates the exercise of love and kindness—most importantly, to those who may not deserve it. Grace is as crucial in business as it is in life.

 This truth is embedded in the fiber of who we are, what we believe, our appreciation, and the contribution we make to society. Gracious people exhibit the following characteristics:

 They seek to make others feel like they’re the most important person with whom they can spend time, and always put the needs of others first.  They live according to personal standards that are higher than any given code of conduct, and incorporate dignity, honor, and respect in extending grace to others—even when things have not gone their way.

People who share the Consul personality type are, for lack of a better word, popular – which makes sense, given that it is also a very common personality type, making up twelve percent of the population. In high school, Consuls are the cheerleaders and the quarterbacks, setting the tone, taking the spotlight and leading their teams forward to victory and fame. Later in life, Consuls continue to enjoy supporting their friends and loved ones, organizing social gatherings and doing their best to make sure everyone is happy.

=Courtny Moody - Scribe= Hello there my name is Courtny Moody and I am 28 years old. I have lots of experience in many different areas, but I have the most experience with administrative tasks.

I also worked as a Personal Assistant/Operations Manager for one of my colleagues and her family.

I also have a 7 year old son so it would be great to spend time at home with him. I am very good at following directions and helping wherever I am needed. I work very hard and I learn extremely quickly


 * My Perfect Job**

There are many different qualities that I am looking for when it comes to the perfect job for me. The top quality is flexible work hours as I have a 7-year-old son. The next quality would be a low stress, relaxed work environment. I can handle stress and I have no problem working in a stressful environment, but I would enjoy a job more without it. The last quality that would make the perfect job is one where I am learning new things all the time. When I am learning new things, it keeps me interested.

Another talent that I have is my willingness to help. I am always eager to help those that I can. This talent has also proven to be my downfall in many situations as I have been used by different people that I have crossed paths with in my life. Despite this negativity, I am still always willing to help. Lastly, I would say that my optimism is one of my talents. I am always eager to see the silver lining.
