Warner Media Leadership Meeting, Priya Dogra
Dogra joined WarnerMedia as director, mergers & acquisitions in August 2009 and held a number of positions in the company, most recently president WarnerMedia EMEA and Asia (ex China) before being appointed to her current role in April 2022.
In an email to staff, obtained and published by Deadline, Gerhard Zeiler, president WarnerMedia International, said that the pair had mutually agreed that Dogra will leave at the end of this year.
Going forward the EMEA team will report directly to Zeiler.
In the email, he said: “I appreciate this news will come as a surprise to many, especially because Priya has been a key partner to me and has been instrumental in many important developments at our company during her tenure. Priya is a hugely popular leader and is familiar to many of you, having been with us for nearly 14 years, during which time she has made a significant and lasting impact. Priya held several vital roles during her time with us including head of mergers & acquisitions for Time Warner and head of strategy and corporate development for WarnerMedia.
Zeiler added: “I have known Priya since I joined Turner in 2012 and she is a world-class executive, whose knowledge of our industry, and especially the international media landscape, is extraordinary. She is as much an expert in the commercial side of our business as she is passionate and knowledgeable about content.
“I want to take this moment to give my sincere thanks to Priya for her exceptional and unwavering leadership, professionalism and dedication which has driven the success of our incredible network and streaming brands, TV series, films, and games, delivering growth in a complex and continuously changing region”.
