    Advocacy

    Today’s episode is all about Advocacy. I interview a lifetime advocate and Greenhouse Scholars professional networking contact, Bryan Bird. Besides being an all around awesome guy to talk to, Bryan brings 25 years of professional advocacy experience to our conversation. What you will learn from this conversation is that no matter what career field you're in at some point you are going to have to advocate for yourself, for your ideas, or for others. Being an effective advocate means that you can motivate people around you about something; it means that you are persuasive and have the ability to understand other people’s perspectives. In addition to these skills being key skills of an advocate, they are all leadership skills! Listen to this one and learn how to better advocate for what you believe in.
