Very excited to share this electric convo with Kamala Avila-Salmon who is a very impressive lady.
She is the first-ever Head of Inclusive Content for Lionsgate Films. It's fitting as innovation, uniqueness, and disruption have been hallmarks of every role she’s had.
She leads a team responsible for developing and implementing diversity, equity, and inclusion strategies to ensure the Lionsgate film slate reflects inclusive stories that represent a global, diverse audience.
A graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Business School, she has built her career across tech, music, film, television, and streaming.
In our sit-down, we discuss the current state of DEI in Hollywood, how to be discerning about feedback, and what makes producers exceptional partners to studio executives.
