Why is the Yale Publishing Course valuable for publishing professionals?
Because the publishing landscape is changing so rapidly, it seems to me to be more imperative than ever to take some time and step away from one's daily routine and think about where the industry is heading and what that means for one's own career. Everyone is scrabbling to keep up with an ever-increasing workload, and this leaves little time to find out what is going on outside one's own silo. The value of gaining a wider perspective on what's changing in the media world and being immersed in thinking about strategic planning and how to be innovative is essential in becoming a more effective leader. Our mission is to provide an environment and curriculum that allows mid- to senior-level professionals to do just that.
