Oertley Exits Leadership Music

December 5, 2011/by Sarah Skates

Leadership Music Executive Director Karen Oertley has exited the post. The longtime music journalist and editor joined the organization almost two years ago in January 2010.

The role includes coordination of the yearly training program, fundraising, and alumni communication efforts.

Previously, Oertley was Vice President of the Billboard Music Group, where she served as group publisher of Musician magazine and publisher and editor-in-chief of Amusement Business.

Oertley replaced previous Leadership Music Executive Director Kira Florita.

Leadership Music named a new Board of Directors in August 2011.

Calls to the Leadership Music offices were not immediately returned.
