👀 Loved watching this recap of PAR's RevUP Summit a few weeks ago! Had a fabulous time connecting around how we can boost revenue within our associations to fulfill the mission.

A few weeks ago, I spent time at the NAB NY Show talking about AI 🤖 in newsrooms.

Then, I headed to Victoria 🇨🇦 to talk about mental health for association professionals at CSAE. 💛

The month has been long ✈️ but productive.

This trip with RIAS BERLIN KOMMISSION was one of my favorite experiences this year by far. Highly recommend if any of my journalism friends are looking for something to inspire you to keep doing the work.

Grateful to be part of the community of 101 USA Obama Leaders. The work is rewarding, the connections are amazing and every once in a while, you get to have pretty amazing Zoom calls with former presidents. 🎉

Thanks so much to the @obamafoundation.bsky.social for this amazing opportunity!

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of working with 10 talented student #journalists from around the state of #Indiana. They had a quick deadline, in-the-trenches competition and their work gave me hope for the future. Check their work out here --> indypressfoundation.org/keating-comp...

BREAKING: The D.C. Court of Appeals has rejected award-winning journalist Catherine Herridge's bid to protect her sources via reporter's privilege.

This is a significant blow to press freedom for all journalists.

Excited to talk about how strategic boards drive revenue at the upcoming PAR conference in November. Associations can't afford to not be ready for change (what change?) and positioned to build on opportunity.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is holding one of its regular board meetings – under highly irregular circumstances. Last month the White House said Trump had fired three of the five people on the CPB board. But this is not The Apprentice, where the words "you're fired" have magical power. 🧵
