What participants say about Lead with Influence: 'It helped me restock my professional toolbox'
Lead with Influence is an interactive, virtual training for leaders who manage big responsibilities — such as processes, products or platforms — but have no direct reports.

If you're interested, act fast: Applications for this program close Friday.

Here's what some recent attendees said about their experience:

“Through this training, I shared a real issue that my organization had asked me to tackle, got real-time feedback and now have ideas for how to solve this problem and build support for carrying this project forward.” – Laura Santhanam, PBS NewsHour

“Lead With Influence offered a jolt of new insights about myself and how to work with others. It helped me restock my professional toolbox, and I immediately began applying new perspectives in my everyday work.” – Sarah Webb, Krell Institute

“The course content was exceptionally well-designed, focusing on both theoretical concepts and practical applications relevant to our specific industry challenges.” – Saja Mortada, Arab Fact-Checkers Network, Arab Reporters for Investigative Journalism

It acknowledges the difficult, ongoing demands placed on the news industry, but challenges the narrative that everything about the news industry is bad. It does so by highlighting examples where news industry ingenuity, hope and creativity shine.
