The AAJA Executive Leadership Program (ELP) looks at how Asian American and Pacific Islander values relate to high-level decision-making processes and leadership development. The two-session program explores the responsibilities and challenges in the newsroom. Each participant will develop individual career paths to leadership positions. There have been 381 graduates of the Executive Leadership Program since the program began in 1995.

In a survey of Executive Leadership Program graduates, 55% of all respondents received 1 or more promotions within their company or at new companies. Of those who received promotions, 83% rated the program 3 or above on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the highest, when asked about the impact of their ELP training on their promotions.

The AAJA Executive Leadership Program was founded by Dinah Eng, columnist for Scripps Howard News Service, freelance writer and former AAJA National President.
