                  The State of the Press: How do leaders stay informed when we (really) don’t want to be watching?Leading through turbulent times requires that we stay up to date on all that’s happening, but that can be hard to do when we’re exhausted by what we’re seeing, and we don’t really want to watch, listen, or read about what’s going on. Join us for an interactive and informative discussion on the State of the Press and how we, as effective leaders, can engage with today’s news to support ourselves, our people, businesses, and our communities, and to promote the accurate, nuanced production of news that drives and spurs civic engagement
