The Sales Executive for Affordable Housing has worn many hats at Yardi, relocated across the country, and is raising a large family while maintaining a positive disposition. Her key to success? Focusing on what matters, which has consistently boiled down to a high regard for the team she works with and the people that she works for.<\/p>\n<p>After leaving behind her life as a stay at home mom, Rachel landed a role as an administrative assistant for Classic. She soon transitioned into a support team member in the Atlanta office. It was a perfect match that maintained her interest even after the Yardi acquisition. \u201cWhen I was in a support role with Classic, I really enjoyed working with people who needed my help and were grateful for it. It felt like I made a difference. In sales with Yardi, I help companies and individuals find out what\u2019s best for them and their growth. I get to use my background in customer service and I love helping them.\u201d Even as job descriptions change, keeping her eye on the needs of others helps Rachel transition with grace.<\/p>\n<p>Though she could not have foreseen herself as a Sales Executive in her youth, she loves where she has landed. \u201cI\u2019m naturally a bit introverted and a bit shy,\u201d she shrugs. \u201cIt took a while to get used to talking to pe<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/people\/rachel-lindley\/5717.html\/attachment\/img_20101030_213419\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5732\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5732\" style=\"margin: 10px;\" title=\"Rachel and Brad\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2013\/03\/IMG_20101030_213419-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Rachel and Brad\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a>ople and putting myself out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Being introverted does not mean that Rachel is a homebody. Her love of the outdoors has always played a huge role in fulfilling her sense of adventure. \u201cI grew up hunting and fishing,\u201d she admits, her voice instantly igniting. \u201cI really enjoy hunting in the North Georgia Mountains. I\u2019ve got so many pictures of my family and me in camo and orange\u2014I looked like a boy,\u201d she laughs.\u00a0 Rachel\u2019s interest in outdoor sports was undoubtedly sparked by her father. The first gift that she remembered receiving from him was a rifle for her seventh birthday.<\/p>\n<p>Her understanding of nature and basic survival skills has not outlived its usefulness. Primarily, Rachel is the sort of woman that you would want to team up with during the zombie apocalypse. Secondly, she has dreams of living off of the grid during retirement. \u201cPreferably, I\u2019d be one of those self-sufficient sorts: living off of the grid, harvesting rainwater, farming. I like to read up on that when I can.\u201d She has yet to finalize any plans. Relocating to Phoenix has kept her busy.<\/p>\n<p>Rachel transferred to Phoenix two years ago. While she misses her beloved Georgia Mountains, she has adapted to the desert conditions with ease\u2014along with her husband and fellow Yardi employee, Brad Lindley and their team of six kids. \u201cI do miss Georgia but we still enjoy getting outside with family, camping, fishing, and hiking when we can, especially up in Payson.\u201d \u00a0Her family thrives in breezy summer evenings and the cooler months where they spend most of their free time outdo<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/people\/rachel-lindley\/5717.html\/attachment\/475447_3609490594969_2119106612_o\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5733\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-5733\" title=\"The Lindley kids\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2013\/03\/475447_3609490594969_2119106612_o-300x142.jpg\" alt=\"The Lindley kids\" width=\"300\" height=\"142\" \/><\/a>ors. \u201cThere are plenty of parks and so much to do. It\u2019s wonderful! And I love the sense of community here.\u201d When the stifling heat traps them indoors, Rachel takes culinary adventures with the kids as an alternative. \u201cI adore cooking but not the mess that I make in the kitchen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Rachel\u2019s upbringing has taught her the value of creative problem solving and adapting to varying professional and personal environments. Perhaps above all, she has learned the timeless lesson that anything worth having is worth working for.\u00a0 Rachel dedicates her patience and attentiveness to meeting clients\u2019 needs. Those same characteristics are used to help her become a better mother day by day. Yardi culture has helped her meet personal and career goals.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019m with everyone else: Yardi culture is awesome. I appreciate the work-life balance, the flexibility we\u2019re given to help us be good employees with strong family lives. I\u2019m proud to say that I\u2019m happy going to work each day. \u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Numerous personal transitions have sharpened Rachel Lindley\u2019s ability to adapt to anything that life hurls her way.
