About Our Guest:
Federica Cherubini is the Director of Leadership Development at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. She is an expert in newsroom operations and organizational change, with ten years experience spanning major publishers, research institutes and editorial networks around the world.
Before working at the Reuters Institute, she worked as a consultant to develop a more inclusive, sustainable, and communicative work environment at Hearken.

Apart from being passionate about development and growth, she works hard in engaging with organizations at all levels to spread awareness for the importance of diversity and inclusivity, and build bridges between the gap between senior management and often younger workers, whose values of what it means to work have changed.
