Fighting Hierarchy and Redefining Leadership
In this episode, Mariam sits down with Brittany Brady (she/hers) to talk about how to be a “learning” leader and the importance of defining success on your own terms. Brittany shares many stories about how she handles situations at her own workplace, National Alliance for Partnerships in Equity (NAPE), to create an open and welcoming space for her colleagues, as well as how healthy engagement helped her become the leader that she is today. More often than not, leaders don’t know everything about all the issues that’s prevalent in their organization, and that’s okay. Instead of upholding standards that are no longer suitable, leaders should focus on fostering the company culture and embracing the diversity of mind, approach, and creativity of their diverse staff.
Brittany is the CEO of NAPE, the nation’s leading professional alliance committed to building the capacity of educators to increase student access, educational equity and workforce diversity. Throughout her career, Brittany has been a passionate advocate for equitable access to education and quality teacher training and support. Brittany was formerly the chief development officer for Lumin Education. Previously, she was the director of Advancement at Education Opens Doors and the executive director of the Brewer Foundation Future Leaders Program. Brittany serves as a board member of Our D.R.E.A.M. Foundation and program director for the THR!VE Intern and Leadership Program. She holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Maryland and a master’s degree from Harvard Graduate School of Education.
