Carolyn McCall
Join us for an evening of fascinating conversation with BBC News Editorial Director and Media Trust Trustee, Kamal Ahmed, who will be joined in the hot seat by one of the UK’s leading business women, Carolyn McCall.
Carolyn made history in January 2018 after joining ITV as their first female Chief Executive. Prior to joining ITV, Carolyn spent eight years at the helm of easyJet, winning praise from rival firms and quadrupling the airline’s share price. Previous to this, she worked at the Guardian Media Group becoming CEO in 2006.
So what vision does the female CEO with one the best track records in the business have for ITV?
Kamal and Carolyn will be discussing:
- Her journey to becoming the first female Chief Executive at TV giant ITV and Management Today’s two-time CEO of the year;
- ITV’s strategy to be ‘More than TV’ and how their social purpose fits within this;
- How TV and traditional media formats are being disrupted and her predictions for the sector;
