When you think Creative Content Company, you think social media management, training, blogging and similar online marketing services. When you think about the owner of Creative Content Company, you think of Hazel. You might know her as Hazel Cottrell or more recently Hazel Andrews-Oxlade. I imagine / hope you think friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and professional. But I wonder if you think of Hazel as a Happening Influential Leader.
Well, we are here to tell you that Hazel of Creative Content Company has been shortlisted as a Happening Influential Woman Leader Awards 2024 finalist. I’m not sure, until the email making me aware, and this blog – I have ever used the word ‘happening’? It feels quite outdated, like cool, groovy or trendy?
Regardless, Vinny and his team at Era Women Leaders Magazine have been doing their research. They have looked at my strong presence at work in achieving strategic outcomes. This is what will then be featured in their magazine. They have looked at my journey to becoming a business leader, and subsequently a happening influential leader (apparently). The research team at Era Women Leaders Magazine have also looked at how I have inspired other female entrepreneurs through my own creative professional journey.
So – there you have it! Who am I to disagree with the experts that I am shortlisted for the Happening Influential Leader Award 2024?
But why are you only shortlisted I hear you ask? Well for the sum of just £1,800 I can be made the winner. I will also get a link in their online magazine and a photograph in the online magazine too. I’ll have a full-page HTML link to my profile too. In addition, I can have 2 adverts within the next 6 months. I can also have limitless reprint rights of my two-page profile.
Maybe now you are wondering what magazine I am talking about. I’ve mentioned it twice and surely you have seen it alongside the likes of The Economist, The Independent, OK and similar media? No – you haven’t? Nor have I! Maybe Era Women Leaders Magazine is just for the ‘happening’ among us.
Here at Creative Content Company, we have never been involved in ‘pay to play’ type business awards. It’s likely that this is exactly what this one is. BUT – it does feel quite nice for the ego to get an email like this. And maybe, as trends come round, I can tell my grandkids in years to come that I was once a Happening Influential Leader.
