Janneman has tripled ad sales revenue since coming to the network in 2009 with a resume that included Current TV, Weather Channel, and AOL/Time Warner, where she is credited with doubling ad sales revenues at TNT and TBS to more than $1 billion annually. She believes cable can support women further by “putting them front and center as the voice of empowerment. By giving them the voice and the stage for their thoughts, opinions and expertise they will be heard and recognized.”

How can cable do better job at supporting the industry’s women?

Cable can do a better job supporting women by putting them front and center as the voice of empowerment: on panels, in the press, interviews, workshops.  By giving them the voice and the stage for their thoughts, opinions and expertise they will be heard and recognized.  This also shines the spotlight on who’s behind the success of the leading men.

How do you define a successful career?

A successful career is one where you’ve left a positive and lasting impression on the members of your team.  Where you’ve helped them be the best that they can be.  Knowing how to motivate people and ultimately drive “success” will result in positive benefits to the company and therefore a successful career.

Best trick for maintaining the personal-professional life balance?

There is no such thing as balance in this area. A successful executive is “always on” just as a loving spouse/parent or partner. The key is to be present. To acknowledge where you are and power up accordingly.  Do not try to multitask these important but different responsibilities, as you will fail on both ends. Whatever you do and wherever you are, BE PRESENT.
