Local Chapters Team Up

Local Chapters of SCTE & WICT partner together to build awareness of cable technology.

WICT Greater Florida volunteers had a lot of fun during the SCTE Cable Tec Games held on September 26th. WICT members assisted the Central Florida Chapter of SCTE with registration and supported the judges during the cable tec games. I think it was the WICT team on Cable Tec Jeopardy was the highlight of the evening.

It was a memorable experience that we hope to continue in 2008. Thank you to Brian Parrish, Central Florida SCTE President and the rest of the board for inviting us and including us in such a great time.

WICT develops women leaders who transform our industry!

During the SCTE Tec Expo held in Orlando Fl on June 20th

 Women in Cable Telecommunications sponsored a program called

Tech It Out: A Conversation with Women Technology Leaders

Benita Fitzgerald Mosley, President & CEO of Women in Cable Telecommunication moderated a panel that was comprised of Nomi Bergman, Executive VP, Strategy/Development for Advance/Newhouse Communications, Sherita Ceasar, VP of Product Engineering, Planning and Strategy for Comcast Communications, Kristine Faulkner, VP Product Development and Management for Cox communications Inc., Carol Richardson, Interim Dean College of Applied Science and Technology at Rochester Institute of Technology and Carolyn Terry, Regional Director, Engineering Time Warner Cable, Los Angeles CA.


This panel was asked to explain how women can take advantage of the growing opportunities available in the cable technology profession. Members of the Greater Tampa Chapter of WICT joined these senior women leaders and learn how they have navigated today's complex cable technologies and stayed current on upcoming trends. The group discovered firsthand their secrets to success, including management and leadership strategies the panelists developed to overcome the challenges and climate of the industry.
