On International Women’s Day, women in leadership roles at Ardmore-based Gregory FCA shared how they support other women at work and offered their best advice for women growing their careers, writes Fran Merlie for Gregory FCA Insights.

Managing Director Brittany Bevacqua had great mentors throughout her entire career, and now she is paying it forward.

“Every day, I do my best to honor what they’ve taught me and apply those lessons in my work with the incredible women I manage and mentor at the firm,” she said.

For Senior Vice President Katie Kennedy, studying the media is key to a career in public relations.

“Consume lots of different content, types of media, and have a hunger for understanding it,” she said.

Also, “have grace with yourself,” she added. “It’s a long road and PR is changing rapidly. Be eager to learn, whether about a reporter’s beat, a client’s company, a particular vertical, or just about a new news outlet you know your client could add value to.”

Senior Vice President Britni Ackrivo echoed her words.

“Be a sponge and soak in all there is to learn around you,” she said.
