Amy Young
National Automotive Experts / NWAN
Who are the most important people in your life?
My wonderful husband, James, and our children Zenon (15), Fiona (9) and Hugo (2). In addition, my life wouldn’t be as great as it is without the influence and guidance from my boss, our CEO Kelly Price. She provides a fantastic work environment, abundant educational opportunities, and a friendship that I didn’t know was possible between a CEO and an employee!
Who do you work for and what is your role?
I work for a Northcoast 99 company called National Automotive Experts / NWAN. I was promoted to the newly formed role of Corporate Events Manager at the end of 2017. I. Love. My Job.
What is the best thing about your job?
I thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to bring our CEO’s vision to life when planning and executive our events. I have never experienced such appreciation and trust before and am grateful every single day.
What are the 3 most important skills you use at work?
1. Attention to detail. 2. Being proactive. 3. Organization.
What one piece of advice would you give to someone beginning their career in the Meeting Industry?
Never underestimate the power of paying attention to detail. No matter how small the gesture may seem, personal attention and individualized service will help you build rapport and earn respect from your bosses and clients.
What super-power would you love to have to help you do your job better?
I would LOVE to be able to actually read people’s minds! I try my hardest to anticipate expectations, but would like to be right 100% of the time!
