Poynter may be a global leader in journalism, but what does that look like inside our offices and across the world every day?
That's the question we'll be diving into this month.
Every February, Poynter welcomes its National Advisory Board to our home office in St. Petersburg, Florida, for two days of conversation about innovations, opportunities and potential for the future of journalism.
This year, we're welcoming four new members and unveiling our 2023-24 Impact Report, where we demonstrate how our work is improving journalism at home and abroad, day in and day out.
As Poynter Neil Brown writes, "Our job is to make journalism better and, in the process, make democracy stronger. That’s the goal: elevate journalism in service of democracy.”

This course is designed for reporters with up to six years of experience.

Six-week newsletter course
The concept of Work-Life Chemistry has been developed over seven years by Poynter's Kristen Hare. Thousands of journalists and news leaders from around the world have created their own Work-Life Chemistry formulas to stay engaged, make decisions with confidence and find joy.
In this course, she'll walk you through discovering your formula, building it for growth and using it to combat burnout, and help you find a focused and sustainable approach to navigating the demands on our time, the opportunities in front of us and the relationships we cherish.
Cost: $50. |
