Engagement & Change within Media Organizations
I am particularly drawn to the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), not only as a strategic imperative for media organizations, but as a vehicle to promote accessibility of artistic experiences. I am interested in ways in which positive leadership within entertainment and media organizations can champion values such as inclusion, representation, making art more widely available, and serving the public good.
By centering my pathway within studies of CSR along with Positive Organizational Scholarship, I hope to learn how to promote systemic change through human-centered operational design. Specifically, I am eager to study how Human Resources can move beyond administrative functions to become a tool for inclusive talent development, and how Community Engagement strategies can be integrated directly into operations to ensure that serving the public good is a measurable achievement rather than an afterthought. Throughout my completion of my pathway, my goal is to build an academic toolkit that allows me to manage the logistical complexities of media production while prioritizing the social missions of organizations.
