How to develop, pitch and produce your original programming concept

How do you get your idea produced even if you don't yet have all this experience? This seminar will tell you how to move up in this highly competitive industry and will address the combination of tried and true leadership techniques, management tactics, business savvy and creative chutzpah required to get the most out of your original concept.
