Summary
Ever felt like you didn’t have the right background to make it in marketing? Brooke didn’t go to uni. She didn’t have a head start or a polished CV. What she did have was persistence, a lot of self-awareness, and someone willing to throw down a challenge - in the form of a sales book and a second chance. Today she’s Managing Director at Broadley Speaking - a sales and marketing consultancy that helps businesses find and convert high-value opportunities. In this episode, we talk about: how she broke into the industry with zero formal experience the moment a single interview nearly derailed everything what rejection taught her about leadership and listening why she hires for attitude, not academics and what resilience actually looks like when you’re living it - not just posting about it Hosted on Acast.
