Along the way, she helped transform UNF's parking operation, embraced new technology, learned to advocate for her own career growth, and discovered an entire industry and professional community she hadn't known existed.\n\nBrooke and Salena also get into self-advocacy, building teams that don't need you to function, learning strategic patience, why women need to brag about themselves a little more, and the value of admitting when you don't know something and finding people who do. Salena also shares why one of her biggest professional regrets is not finding mentorship sooner. \n\nIt’s a funny, candid conversation about what can happen when you keep your head up, advocate for yourself and work for the job you want, not just the one you have.\nSpecial Thanks to Our Sponsors:\nHonk – Transforming the parking experience with seamless contactless payments. honk.com\nDESIGNA – Leading the way in intelligent, scalable parking systems. us.designa.com\nIPS Group – Powering connected parking and mobility solutions worldwide. ipsgroup.com\nIntro & Outro Music:\n“Run the Ramp” by Queen of AV, under the Curb Culture Media label.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/BTWjpT9NWXda2_bL_X1BC2gBBOD3Bum6R9dRwZrXHL4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS85ZjU2/ODJiZGZjZTE4MDAw/NmNlZDM0YThhMTky/YWVjZi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
