Opening worlds of possibilities | Lesli Rotenberg | TEDxTimesSquare

Описание: This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. We have all experienced being pushed and stretched to our greatest potential. How did we get there? Who helped us and what did it fell like to be pushing boundaries? Lesli is spearheading multi-media platforms to help children grow.

As General Manager of Children’s Programming at PBS, Lesli Rotenberg is responsible for the strategic direction of an innovative, dynamic children’s media service that meets the needs of a new generation of children, their parents and teachers, helping to prepare children for success in school and in life. Lesli leads a cross disciplinary team charged with content production, digital development, multi-platform asset distribution, education resources, marketing and communications and educational product creation for the #1 children’s media brand. Eighty percent of all children ages 2-8 watch PBS KIDS, more minutes were spent viewing kids video on pbskids.org than any other kids’ site last year and each month pbskids.org attracts over 11 million unique visitors.
Under Lesli’s leadership, PBS has aggressively transformed itself from a broadcast company to a multi-platform leader that opens up worlds of possibilities for all children through educational television, mobile, the Web, interactive whiteboards, an award-winning line of toys and streaming video.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
