These 27 executives will begin the yearlong program, recognized for its unique tools, coaching support and interconnected alumni network, on Jan. 10.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (Jan. 6, 2022) — The Poynter Institute, a global leader in journalism, fact-checking and media literacy education, is pleased to announce the 27 senior executives selected for the 2022 Media Transformation Challenge (MTC) Program: A Poynter Institute Executive Fellowship.

Since 2007, more than 300 senior media executives have realized critical performance results, built lifelong career skills and relationships, and made major contributions to industry transformation through this yearlong program (known industrywide as the original Punch Sulzberger Program at Columbia, led by Doug Smith through 2018).

The 2022 Fellows represent some of the biggest media brands in the world, including The Associated Press, The Atlantic, ABC News, BBC, CNN, GBH News, NPR, Reuters and Southern California Public Radio, as well as leading-edge nonprofit news organizations testing new audience approaches and business models. Incoming Fellows will learn and apply MTC’s well-known tools of performance-driven change, have yearlong access to a full slate of diverse executive coaches (including a personal coach), and connect with a world-class set of former Fellows since 2007 who share common language and program experiences.

Fellows will begin the MTC program remotely on Jan. 10, 2022, under the leadership of executive director Charlie Baum, joined by coaches Quentin Hope, Karen Gordon, Robyn Tomlin, Amanda Barrett, Stephane Mayoux and Lauren Gustus.

“I’m deeply grateful for this very diverse, talented incoming class, and we’re excited to begin a new set of MTC journeys,” said Baum. “Thank you to all the program alumni and supporters who helped bring together this particular group of Fellows.”

Several Fellows are supported through the generosity of the Google News Initiative, the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and the American Journalism Project.
