Small update for 2016
 | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The reviewer would like to request the editor with a COI attempt to discuss with editors engaged in the subject-area first. |
Once again, I am back with some proposed updates to the article, and I'm hoping someone can help me implement them appropriately. I am suggesting edits on Leslie's behalf, and while I no longer have any financial connection here, I do have a personal/professional one so I'd prefer not to edit the article directly in order to avoid COI concerns. This source confirms Leslie's current role as head of Made by Many's New York office, and being recognized as Fast Company's "Most Creative People in Business" in 2013, while this one confirms her title of "managing partner". Therefore, I propose the following updates:
- Add to the article's "Career" section: As of 2016, Bradshaw is managing partner[1] and heads the first U.S. office of the U.K.-based agency Made by Many, in Soho, New York.[2]
- Mention her current role at Made by Made in the article's infobox (using the "employer" parameter) and at the end of the lead paragraph with the text:
- As of 2016, Bradshaw is managing partner for the U.K.-based agency Made by Many, heading up its New York office.
- Add to the article's "Awards and recognition" section: In 2013, Bradshaw was named one of Fast Company's "Most Creative People in Business.[2]
- Finally, would it be appropriate to change the "known for" parameter in the infobox to "Founding and operating digital agencies"? Given the ongoing coverage of Leslie's career beyond JESS3, especially as a "digital pioneer", I wondered if this would be a better shorthand for what she's known for.
