This program springs from a simple observation: Leaders in the news business grow as they themselves tackle their companies’ most critical business challenges.
The program is offered to 20 high-ranking executives over a 12-month period. During that time, the participants learn to use strategy, innovation, and other critical approaches to undertake challenges confronting their companies. Classes are spread over four sessions of three to five days at the Columbia campus. The program is augmented with peer learning, business advisors, specific assignments, and tailored content, all designed to achieve a project or workplace challenge that participants bring to the program.

She can put you in touch with editors from the Providence Journal, the Christian Science Monitor, ABC, the Associated Press as well as some start-up digital media leaders who have completed this unique leadership initiative.
