Meet the Production Manager, Lauren Shover

This will be Lauren Shover’s 10th year as the Production Manager for County Woman Publications. Considered to be the true “backbone” of the publication by those who work with her, she began her career right before graduating from Rowan University with a Bachelors degree in Public Relations. She later decided to continue her education, earning a Master’s Degree in Communications from Southern New Hampshire University. Her educational background has prepared her well for this role, as the job is not one for the faint of heart.

Generally speaking, a magazine production manager oversees the production of a magazine, from initial meetings that decide editorial and advertising, to the final stages of production, design, printing, and circulation. Luckily, one of Lauren’s strongest qualities is organization, which happens to be critical for this role. The job also demands excellent time management skills and the ability to manage competing deadlines. While chaotic days still exist, Lauren admits to being the type of person that relishes in challenges and actually views them as opportunities.

Lauren is excited to reach for some of her goals for the magazine this year. One of them is continuing to explore new opportunities for the magazines and to advertise the publication more on the digital side. She adds, “It is imperative that we remain current and up to date with new advances in technology.”
