Emphasizing professional growth, the program addresses the unique challenges faced by executives of color, while strengthening the competencies that\u00a0all\u00a0executives must have in order to be successful.\u00a0 The ELDP curriculum explores a range of business-critical topics such as strategy, finance, marketing, innovation, and leadership agility, presented as integrated components of a holistic learning experience.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;ELDP has emerged as one of the most respected curricula designed to prepare multicultural professionals to advance in the always evolving media and entertainment industry,&#8221; said\u00a0<b><span class=\"xn-person\">James C.

Candidates must be nominated by small industry MSO&#8217;s and programmers that, because of revenue limitations and comparatively a small footprint, do not possess the financial wherewithal to send talented executives through ELDP.\u00a0<b>The deadline for submitting fellowship nominations is also <span class=\"xn-chron\">July 28<\/span>, 2017.\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Complete eligibility information and nomination criteria for the Executive Leadership Development Program can be accessed by visiting\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/namic.com\/dev\/eldp\" rel=\"nofollow\"><b>namic.com\/dev\/eldp<\/b><\/a>, or by contacting\u00a0Jim Jones at 212.594.5985, or via e-mail:\u00a0<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:jim.jones@namic.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><b>jim.jones@namic.com<\/b><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><b><u>ABOUT NAMIC<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>NAMIC (National Association for Multi-ethnicity in Communications)<\/b> is the premier organization focusing on multi-cultural diversity, equity and inclusion in the communications industry.
