The room looks a lot better when women are running it.
From EPs to founders to heads of production, these are the women making things happen, protecting talent, pushing creative forward, building companies, and opening doors for the next generation.
Their advice? Take the room. Stay loud. Know your worth. Don’t wait to feel ready.
SG+ Reps spotlights the women who call the shots, featuring our very own EP’s Tracy Spera and Joanna Woods!
