It’s been quite the year for Conte and FETV. She’s been at the center of the network’s growth, which has increased its Nielsen household universe by 19% from June 2023 vs June 2022. That expansion helped FETV have its highest household L+7 impressions to date during prime, late night and overnight. Conte is also an engine for FETV’s sister network, FMC, which has had its distribution increase by 16 million households over the past 12 months.
“I think Dr. Seuss’ ‘Oh, the Places You’ll Go’ is one of the best leadership books. I love the optimism and the sense that throughout our career (and life) you’ll have ups and down and that’s OK.”
If you took a six-month sabbatical, how would you spend it? I’d love to take six month sabbatical and travel to Italy. I’ve been to Italy a number of times on vacation but with more time I’d focus on learning the language and tracing my family’s roots. We have a plethora of knowledge about my maternal Grandmother’s family and their trek from Minori to New York City but little is known (at least to me!) on my maternal Grandfather’s family and their roots. Even more importantly, I’d love to learn more about my Dad’s family and his parents travels from Angri to New York City. I’d look to immerse myself in the culture and language and to travel the road of my ancestors – with the theory (hope?) that it will enhance my connection to the past and create an invaluable bridge between generations and an enduring legacy of knowledge about my family’s history.
