BACKGROUND – TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOURSELF My name is Hannah but most people call me Brady. I’m from Coventry but have lived in Northampton for seven years now. When I’m not working I like to keep fit, get outside and spend as much time with friends and family as possible. I’m also president of Next Generation Chamber. WHAT DOES YOUR JOB INVOLVE? The Brady Creative is a marketing agency. We provide three main services that are centred around marketing strategy, branding and social media management. My role in the business is focused on business development, networking and building strategies for clients to help them attract the right audiences. WHY DID YOU JOIN NEXT GENERATION CHAMBER? I remember hearing about it through a local connection and thought it sounded like an environment where I could meet like-minded people and continue improving my skills as a professional woman. WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVOURITE NEXT GENERATION CHAMBER EVENT? I think it’s got to be the CPD around teams, which was hosted by Mhairi Richardson from Tomrom Coaching. I’ve always been fascinated by team behaviours and organizational change and found
Mhairi’s talk really engaging. I soon after joined a book club that Mhairi wanted to start for young professionals and am proud to say that we have since become good friends. So, not only did I learn a lot that day, little did I know I’d met a new and very good friend. WHICH NEXT GENERATION CHAMBER MEMBER DO YOU ADMIRE? Nina Gandy. She always brings a smile into the room and an energy that is infectious. I also have a lot of admiration for the work that Nina and the Cynthia Spencer Hospice team do. WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU’VE LEARNED FROM NEXT GENERATION CHAMBER? I remember attending a CPD called ‘Courage and Conflict’, which was hosted by the wonderful Lucienne Shakir from Lucienne Coaching. I took a lot away from the session but one thing that has stuck with me since is that we all play a role in the conflicts that are happening in our life. We sometimes have to accept that, even if it’s difficult. Very often now, I ask myself in situations, ‘What role are you playing in this?’ and ‘What can you do about it?’ LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/marketingprofessionalnortha mpton/ www.thebradycreative.co.uk
