Description:

Media careers were once defined by well-established roles and players. Talent rarely changed roles, with professionals following prescribed, straightforward career paths, onward to pension and retirement.

This reality has completely changed.

Please join us for the next event in our Professional Development Series as we explore the issues, the landscape and the how-to¹s of piloting your media career into a lively and prosperous future.

The evening will be moderated by Carolyn Kepcher, former EVP of the Trump Organization and Donald Trump¹s original co-star on NBC's "The Apprentice." Carolyn will lead a conversation with our panel of dynamically experienced media executives with their own stories and points of view to lend to the evening:
  • Colleen Aylward, Executive Director Agency Development, Yahoo!, following her time at Variety
  • Damon Bethel, EVP Strategic Planning & Business Development, DBG, after a tenure at Starcom MediaVest
  • Alexandra Levy, Director of Online Sales/Operations & Branded Entertainment, Google
  • Denise Garcia, Senior Vice President, ICR, Inc ‹ formerly of Next New Networks, Vibrant Media and others
  • Lou Tosto, SVP Sales and Operations, LinkStorm ‹ formerly of BusinessWeek, SmartMoney
  • Jeff Lundwall, Managing Partner, Mercury Group ‹ formerly of CondeNet and numerous media & technology adventures

The panel will be followed by two more intimate workshops, details to follow in next week’s newsletter!
