Well, this is a little bit like lightning striking, perfect time, perfect moment, perfect firm. Will you please share with us the story of how you kind of crafted not only your marketing director role, which was not what they were advertising for, but also how you became a partner when that’s also not the job they were hiring for? We were having coffee somewhere downtown and I had asked you how you ended up in your role at EcoNorthwest and your story for crafting that job was so amazing.Īnd in my head, I was like, this lady is such a boss and also now she’s going to ask me how I got my job and I’m going to be like, I applied on the internet, which was nowhere near as exciting as how you built it. I can’t wait to dive into all this content that you’ve got in front of us.Īllison, we met a few years ago and I will never forget our introduction because I was so impressed. Thank you so much for taking the time to join us here on Think Tank of Three, Allison.

Īllison is also the author of the book, Marketing at Low Tide: How to Recession-Proof Your Marketing Department, available on Amazon right now. Previously, and I can’t wait to talk about this one, she was a partner and the marketing director at the economics, finance and planning consulting firm EcoNorthwest. She is also a city counselor for the city of Beaverton, Oregon, elected in 2020 for a four year term. It’s a woman owned marketing agency focused on the architecture, engineering and construction industry. First of all, right now she is a pursuit strategist at Middle of Six. It’s really important that we dive in and talk about some of these career choices that Allison has made. I’m really thrilled that she’s joining the podcast because I know that she’s going to inspire and encourage all of our listeners and I can’t wait for you to learn more about her. I have been watching Allison’s career for a couple of years now because I know how thoughtful Allison has been when it comes to her job choices. Our guest today is Allison Tivnon and we’re talking about cultivating a career you love. This is Audrea Fink, here with my cohost, Reischea Canidate-Kapasouris and Julie Holton. In this new episode of the Think Tank of Three podcast, Allison Tivnon shares insights on cultivating a career, putting your best strengths forward, and taking chances that are well worth the risks. But we’ve all got to pay the piper at some point and so often, work we love is not aligned with our job.īut what if no matter where you worked, you worked from your strengths? What if you were able to cultivate work into something that not only got you paid but also sat firmly within your sweet spot? We’ve all heard the phrase, do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.
