As the Television industry continues to evolve, the executives who succeed understand that compelling storytelling comes from great teams that reflect the breadth of our industry and audiences—and great teams come from leaders who know how to develop talent and create environments where people do their best work.
This panel convenes accomplished reality television executives to share their professional journeys, discuss leadership approaches that drive results, and explore how content connects with today's audiences. The conversation examines how executives build high-performing teams, develop talent pipelines, and create storytelling that resonates with the audiences they serve.
From the Super Bowl Halftime Show to The Kardashians to The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives to Searching for Spain, executives share the stories behind the hits—and the practical decisions that shaped their careers and the industry.
