“I am more than happy to provide a LinkedIn recommendation for Shannan Bowen. As the executive director of the NC Local News Workshop for the School of Communications at Elon University, Shannan is an efficient leader who exemplifies integrity, self-awareness, learning agility, and empathy. Shannan and I worked closely together regarding the logistical and event planning for the NC News and Information Summit in March 2022. This event was exceptional because it was co-hosted by the North Carolina Local News Workshop and the North Carolina Open Government Coalition. This daylong conference featured workshops and great conversations highlighting news and transparency in North Carolina. Through this event and working collaboratively through other workshop initiatives, I have witnessed Shannan shine bright as an extraordinary leader in news and information. In closing, I am delighted to recommend Shannan based on her leadership, intellectual drive, and character.”
