Karen Buchholz
EVP, Administration
Comcast Corporation
Buchholz led development
for Comcast's $1.5 billion
Technology Center and the
$750 million Comcast Center
and helped Comcast Cable
build and launch its Lift
Zones program. As head of Comcast's DEI function,
she launched the Joint Diversity Council, introduced
employee resource groups and drove meaningful
progress in supplier diversity, diverse programming
and community impact initiatives.
Karen Grinthal
EVP, National Advertising Sales
Warner Bros. Discovery
Grinthal is a bridge between the linear
world and the streaming space, helping
Warner Bros. Discovery's existing linear
partners better understand the unique
benefits that come with also stretching
into the digital space. The company's first combined upfront
was a pressure moment for Grinthal, but she and her team
successfully led negotiations and secured nearly $6 billion in
commitments from advertisers.
If you have a natural curiosity and have interest in
always learning something new, then change is your
ally and you can always embrace it as a new adventure.
Have confidence in your own ability to contribute based
upon your knowledge and experience and don't be shy about
expressing your ideas. "
Mentor of the Year
As Head of Standards and Practices,
Molina is the guiding voice for CNN
as journalists cover major stories such
as COVID-19, the Ukraine war and
the divided and contentious political
landscape. The decisions she and her
team make don't just impact CNN, but
the entire industry. That important role
alone makes her a mentor to many,
but Molina also is executive sponsor
of Warner Bros. Discovery's women
resource group and has mentored
through the Circle Mentoring Program,
where she advised, supported, and
empowered dozens of young women
from all corners and levels of the
company.
She also serves as a mentor to media
executives through NAMIC and is a
Distinguished Visiting Professor at the
University of Arkansas. In the classroom,
she not only teaches journalism
students about the importance of ethical
decisions and diversity in the media,
but she has created a mentorship circle
that brings together students to help each other as they
navigate the first years of their careers.
" We all have busy jobs, but that should never stop us from
finding time to help others. I have been very fortunate to
have had incredible mentors and champions in my career.
They come from different backgrounds and professions
and they took the time to invest in me, give me advice and
teach me very valuable leadership skills, " Molina says. " Just
like them, I want to give back. Just like them, I want to give
honest feedback to help women and other people of color
learn from their mistakes and acquire important skills. Just
like them, I want to help others find their potential and
believe in themselves. Sometimes it means having a chat
over coffee, or creating a mentoring program, or helping
them solve a specific problem at work. And sometimes it

SVP, News Standards & Practices
CNN Worldwide
means showing them what they can
do, opening their eyes to limitless
possibilities and encouraging them to
take risks. "
One of the individuals who has benefited
from Molina's support is CNN
Senior Marketing Coordinator Kenesha
Cook. The two met during a WICT
mentorship program and continue to
keep in close contact. " Her energy has
a way of drawing you in. We immediately
connected. I admire the way that
she's able to do it all and makes it look
so easy, " says Cook. " She has always
been so encouraging and helped me
through my career journey. She's more
than a mentor to me, she's my friend. "
Molina's advice for a strong mentor-mentee
relationship is to set clear
goals upfront. " But you also have to
be open to just listen, guide them
in solving problems that suddenly
arise and be flexible when they need
something different from what was
originally discussed. Being there when
they really need you, in the most crucial moments, is really
important, " she says.
CNN's commitment to cover the news from all angles so
that no one group's voice is left out of the conversation is
personal to Molina. Having arrived in the U.S. from Peru
when she was 12 years old, she is one of a few Latinas in
the news industry who has an executive and influential
role in both the Hispanic and English market. " Our world
is incredibly diverse, and elevating the voices of underrepresented
communities is crucial in order to tell the stories
of the audiences we serve, " she says. " Having a multicultural
workforce helps our organizations understand
those communities better, brings attention to issues that
are important to them and gives them a seat at the table
where decisions are made. "
