Valbridge Property Advisors Kansas City has four Eagle Scouts. Recently, Baylor University published a nationwide study showing that those who attain this ranking display enhanced "ethics, decision making, relationships and personal development." Leadership: Statistically, Eagle Scouts are 39% more likely to hold positions of leadership within their offices. Valbridge Kansas City Director Jason Roos, MAI is an Eagle Scout. He is also an MAI-designated appraiser and a past President of the Kansas City chapter of the Appraisal Institute. Planning and Preparedness: We all know the importance of disaster preparedness. Scouts are taught from an early age to always be prepared and this definitely translates into the professional world. As appraisers who often go on site visits and inspections, we place a huge emphasis on being prepared for anything when in the field. We even wrote a post about what we bring with us when we go! Helpful: According to the study, Eagle Scouts are 54% more likely to agree that they always try to exceed expectations. Of course, we know this to be true. Our Eagle Scouts (actually, all VPA employees) go the extra mile. Detailed sales confirmations and utilizing top-notch resources are examples of this in action. Trustworthy: One of the pillars of the Boy Scout Law, we incorporate trustworthiness into all of our relations with our clients. You don't have to be an Eagle Scout to know that this is incredibly important in the appraisal industry. In fact, our appraisers are required to abide by the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). What are your favorite Eagle Scout traits? Let us know in the comments below!
