Jim Kennedy in New York has made a career of future thinking. He’s been leading strategic planning for AP, The Associated Press,  the world’s largest news organization, since 2001.
Before his current role was executive director of product planning for the digital site at the Wall Street Journal.
Now, besides his current role he’s a founding member of the Online News Association, a current board member of Digital Content Next and an advisory board member of Matter Ventures, a media startup accelerator.
With that depth of experience, we talk about the future, and the opportunities the traditional publishers have missed and the concept of ongoing training for journalists.
