Register now for the 2019 NLA (ASNE-APME) Conference
Columbia, Mo. (April 23, 2019) - How can newsroom leaders lead in times of urgency, while at the same time training the next generation and growing readers' trust? We'll focus on those questions and many more during the inaugural News Leaders Association conference, Sept. 9-10 in New Orleans.
At the heart of the conference: leadership and audience engagement/growing digital revenue. You'll go home with takeaways that can be incorporated into your work immediately, as well as new connections and tools to help your newsroom grow.
Our jam-packed programming includes sessions on:
-
The Evolution of the Modern Editor
-
Leading in Times of Urgency
-
Managing the Next Generation
-
Being a Strategic Partner with the Community
-
News That's Driving Paid Subscribers
-
Growing Readers' Trust
-
Executing the Big Project - On Time and on Budget
-
Preparing Your Audience for the 2020 Election and Census
-
The Future of the Opinion Page
-
And more!
In addition to our fantastic program, Joy Mayer and Lynn Walsh from Trusting News and the Poynter Institute, will be offering a workshop from 1-5pm on Sunday, Sept. 8 before the NLA conference. The workshop, "How any journalist can earn trust," will center on how to stop thinking of distrust in journalism as an unsolvable, big-picture problem. This is a great opportunity to learn how to address a very serious concern faced in our industry.
In addition to the Poynter workshop before our conference, we are also working with the Knight Foundation to offer a workshop from the coaches and news leaders with the Knight-Lenfest Newsroom Initiative, also known as
the Table Stakes program
. The workshop will be Wednesday, Sept. 11 and will share lessons and tools for leading effective digital transformation in your newsroom.
New Orleans is also a city you want to explore. Plan to spend two full days this fall in a city filled with festive spirit, renowned for vibrant live music, spicy cuisine and round-the-clock nightlife.
