Business and is actively engaged in
local and national STEM youth programs

I began my career as a
developer in the high-tech
industry. I was always the
only female in the room and certainly
the only Black person. My biggest
question was often, 'Why?' As I grew
in my career, that question changed to
'What am I going to do about it?' "
Tina Perry
President
OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network
Perry's entrance into the Cable
Hall of Fame this year was far
from a surprise to the viewers
and storytellers who have seen
their families and experiences reflected in OWN's programming.
She's also pushed the network to make a broader impact, launching
OWN Your Vote 2022 to encourage Black women to vote in the
midterm elections. 2020's version of the initiative drew participation
from 250,000 women.
Sometimes you need to look for a job; other times you need
to look for a boss. Think about this when seeking career
opportunities. "
Terri
Hines
EVP,
Communications
Fox Sports
Hines' prowess
as a communications
maven
is rivaled only by her dedication to
driving meaningful change across
Fox Sports. She co-founded the
company's Inclusion Council and
supported the creation of " Fox
Sports Voices, " a series featuring
diverse sports stories impacting
communities and culture. She's
an executive sponsor of the BLK+
ERG and last year she partnered
with her Asian Community Exchange
(ACE) colleagues to rally
against bigotry.
My mental health 'aha
moment' was realizing the
value and benefit of
meditation. One of the greatest gifts
given to myself during the pandemic
was leaning into the pull toward
guided meditation. Insight Timer
was my saving grace. "

Tina
Shah
EVP & GM
Warner Bros.
Discovery
Sports
WB Discovery
Sports will always be a destination
for premium sports content while
Shah is part of the family. This year,
her team negotiated an eight-year
multimedia rights deal with the U.S.
Soccer Federation that makes TNT,
TBS and HBO Max the exclusive
English-language home for the U.S.
men's and women's national teams.
She's also guiding partnerships with
sportsbooks like DraftKings and
FanDuel.
Favorite life hack: I keep a
running list of things
including hobbies, restaurants,
books, etc. that my team
mentions and reference it when I want
to send a personal thank-you or
special occasion gifts. "
Vicki Lins
President & CEO
CTAM
Lins has continued
to push
CTAM to exceed
expectations
of a marketing
organization.
Consumer education sites like stream
safely.com are moving the needle on
piracy policy, and the organization's
TCA Press Tour continues to answer
today's most pressing question: What
should I watch next? Known for her
relationship building, Lins joined the
board of the Alliance for Women in
Media Foundation, which supports
education and recognition of women
in media.
Change really is good. It
shifts our perspectives and
although it's often uncomfortable,
it provides an opportunity for
us to stretch, learn and grow. Once
you get out of your own way, you'll be
surprised at the many new directions
you can go. "
