SVP & Interim President
WICT

How do you replace a hugely popular cable industry leader, who’s also an all-American athlete with multiple Olympics medals? If you’re Parthavi Das, you acknowledge that you’re not Benita Fitzgerald Mosley – you have different strengths and weaknesses than she, this is one of the lessons of diversity – and you move ahead.

The movie buff (who loves Bollywood films) is scheduled to give way to new WICT chief Maria Brennan on Oct. 19.
