To celebrate the 5th anniversary of the ADU, we had the great pleasure of organizing a discussion panel at this year’s film festival in Munich. The focus lay on “Effective Leadership” in the film industry. The conversation turned into an interesting exchange about what makes a good leader and how to become one.
One of the first chairpersons of the ADU, Inken Janssen (1st AD for e.g. “Herrhausen – The Banker and the Bomb” & “You Are Wanted”), joined Isabell Šuba (director of e.g. “King of Stonks” & “Blutiger Beton”), Marlen von Heydenaber (production designer of e.g. “Club las Piranjas” & “25 km/h”) and Janine Jackowski (producer and founder Komplizen Film) for a one hour-long discussion. The panel was moderated by Magdalena Rogl.
It was a wonderful opportunity to learn from interesting women in leading positions and to understand how they approach the topic of leadership in today’s world of small budgets and time pressure.
We are looking forward to future events and to continuing this dialog. Many thanks to everyone who attended!
