Save the date! Dean McFlicker, former SVP of Promotional Programming at NBCUniversal, will present in Glass Hall Room 102 from 4-5 p.m on Thursday, April 27. 

McFlicker’s presentation, “The Producer’s Perspective” demonstrates how techniques from the entertainment industry can be applied to any situation and yield great results. 

“I’m excited to visit MSU, meet the great students and faculty, and share my story of how I grew up in Missouri then made it in Hollywood,” McFlicker said. 

“I love hearing what students have to say and answering questions that might help them achieve their goals.” 

The producer’s perspective 

McFlicker is a top leadership speaker and marketing expert with a prolific background in the entertainment industry. He has launched hit TV shows, including “This Is Us,” “The Voice,” “America’s Got Talent” and all of NBC’s live musicals.  

As an award-winning director, producer and senior vice president, McFlicker brings creativity to executive leadership.  

“My presentation helps close the gap to show how you can move from the classroom to a successful career,” McFlicker said. “You can work your way up. 

If you work hard, play nicely and put in the time, your biggest career goals are often within reach.”
