Jeanne Mau: Last News

NBCUniversal Launch, the company’s diversity, equity and inclusion home, has developed new unscripted inclusion initiatives to increase representation in key behind-the-camera roles and create lasting change. The Unscripted Producers Program initiatives for Formats/Competition and Unscripted Initiatives for Lifestyle/Documentary are aimed at boosting diversity by establishing a pipeline of diverse talent for unscripted series and providing participants with on-the-job experience and opportunities to grow their skill sets. Its focus is to identify and hire mid-level producers from underrepresented groups directly onto our shows. Jeanne Mau, senior vice president of TV programming diversity, equity and inclusion at NBCUniversal, spoke at the launch event sharing the company’s vision for the program which has been a goal of hers since she joined two years ago. NBCU continues to make a major investment in diversity efforts for unscripted television.
