Former Fortune CEO Alan Murray has been hired to lead a new venture called the Dow Jones Leadership Institute, which will provide C-suite executives with services, reports Sara Fischer of Axios.
Fischer reports that it will “help navigate today’s ever-changing business climate, including executive education and coaching, real-time data and analysis, and peer-to-peer information.
“The new unit will be led by Alan Murray, a long-time veteran of the Wall Street Journal who most recently served as CEO of Fortune Media.
“At Fortune, Murray authored a newsletter, CEO Daily, that catered to top executives. He oversaw Fortune’s live conference expansion across new topics such as AI, health and new business leaders.
“The big picture: Under CEO Almar Latour’s leadership for the past four years, Dow Jones has doubled its digital news subscription footprint. Latour hopes to build on that success by developing a stronger network among its readers in executive leadership roles.”
