How do you go from being an independent film producer to becoming one of the most powerful women in the television industry? That’s just one of the big questions that Lauren Zalaznick answered during a February 3 conversation with executives who took part in the world’s first Advanced Management Program in Media and Entertainment (Media AMP). Zalaznick was recently named Chairman of Entertainment & Digital Networks and Integrated Media at NBC Universal.
Media AMP participants got an exclusive opportunity to engage with Zalaznick in an intimate, closed-door session at IESE Business School’s New York Center, as part of the program’s unique Leadership Forums.
Zalaznick, who has spent her entire career in media and whose “Midas touch” transformed Bravo into an award-winning network with hit franchises like Top Chef and Real Housewives, shared her insights on the future of TV, the lessons she’d learned in her various roles, her management style, and the things she looks for when building a successful team. Zalaznick’s message: Find the right balance between what you’re good at and what makes you happy, and the rest will fall into place.
