An Executive Conversation with our Regions Media Leaders
For the first time, the MBA is bringing together the leaders of Erie’s major television stations for a conversation with the region’s business community. This exclusive Executive Speaker Series will feature John Christianson of Lilly Broadcasting and Spencer Lane of Nexstar, offering a rare opportunity to hear directly from the executives leading the organizations behind ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX in our market.
We’ll explore leadership, navigating change, the evolving media landscape, the importance of local journalism and the role these organizations play in our community – along with the leadership lessons they’ve learned along the way.
