Cynopsis: Classified Advantage
01.28.14

Good morning. It’s Tuesday, January 28, 2014, and this is your weekly issue of Cynopsis: Classified Advantage!

Welcome to Leadership Lessons, the column that focuses on conversations with senior managers and leaders in the TV world, speaking candidly about their professional journeys and how that informs what they look for when hiring new employees.

What qualities do you look for when hiring?

Keith Chapman, founder, Keith Chapman Productions and the creator of Bob the Builder and new Nickelodeon series, Paw Patrol: People who have the same regard for quality as I do, and those who have a passion for what they are doing and want to produce the very best shows they can. I like people who push themselves.

Deborah Myers, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Science Channel: I look for someone with passion and intelligence who has a real sense of self. I want someone who has done her homework ahead of time and knows my business in and out. I want them to bring fresh ideas. I’m impressed with people who listen and then ask thoughtful questions.
