Leadership & Management Seminars

To be successful in today's news organizations, both new and tenured leaders must develop outstanding journalists and excellent journalism. At Poynter, we believe good leaders are continuous learners. That's why we have expanded our leadership and management courses to include the thinking and the skills necessary for building and sustaining leadership success at all levels.

Poynter Leadership seminars for new and mid-level managers are grounded in three essential elements: management competence, leadership credibility, and continuous learning. As a participant you'll enhance your management competence, and learn to see that your leadership credibility multiplies your effectiveness. You'll become a better communicator and coach and learn how to motivate differing personalities, foster collaboration, build newsroom cultures that value ethical decision-making and diversity, and recruit and retain the best and brightest. You'll receive Poynter's trademark personal attention and support. Guided by Poynter faculty, you'll use feedback from your own newsroom colleagues to build a personal development plan for continued success.

And new for 2002: Poynter's Executive Excellence seminars--short, smart conferences for busy upper-level news executives, each focusing on topics of strategic interest.

No matter where you are in the management ranks, there's a learning opportunity for you at Poynter.
