Real estate’s original leading lady
The Myf Porter story
At the annual Ray White franchisor conference, Crows Nest, there is an award dedicated to skills development of the group; the Myf Porter award. Brian White said that Myf’s lasting legacy on the Ray White group is more than just a name on a trophy.
“Myf defined the foundations of real estate training, not just for Ray White, but for the industry,” Brian White said.
“Awards became important to us when we’d achieved a certain size in the company. When we were organising awards, I was keen to make sure that our awards meant something.
“Myf porter was so unique and such a special personality in our company, that naming an award after her for skills development and dedication, seemed incredibly appropriate.
“Having her there in person at all our annual awards night to present the award herself, makes an extra special difference to the gratuitous recipients,” Brian said.
Myf is beyond chuffed by the recounting of stories and memories from many members of the current Ray White leadership team.
“I had four girls and no sons, so perhaps I looked at them as sons. Mark McLeod sat on this very verandah and convinced me for hours about why he was best for a training role in the group. The determination I saw in him was wonderful,” Myf said.
And as for the comments about her stories containing a sprinkling of BS?
“My stories are always based on truth, sometimes you just need to add a little icing, to make it more interesting!”
