We’ll be bringing together a panel of experts to talk about what it means to address the full spectrum of burnout from an organizational perspective with key takeaways for leaders to bring back to their stations and teams.
This session will be a foundational conversation for how we collaborate and create across the industry in new ways; ways that lead to successful outcomes for all of our institutions.
In this session, we'll explore some of these recent arrangements and discuss the opportunities and challenges that come along with bringing content teams together.
Please join American Public Media for this session, where BBC Newshour presenter Razia Iqbal will interview Jon Zilkha, Senior Project Director News Group and incoming News Controller for BBC World Service English about this work. Jon will provide a brief overview of the BBC’s transformative work, considerations for approaching such broad-scale work, implications for content, and other challenges (and success) faced along the way.
In this session we’ll talk about practical and philosophical tactics for both bringing more voices to our audiences and continuing to hold ourselves accountable beyond this moment.
In this session, Fred Jacobs, President of Jacobs Media will present some of the most compelling findings from PRTS 21 and will join Paul Jacobs, GM of Jacobs Media and Ju-Don Marshall, Chief Content Officer and EVP at WFAE in a discussion moderated by Jay Kernis, producer at CBS Sunday Morning and former SVP for Programming at NPR, about what these broad trends and what they mean for public radio in a rapidly changing media landscape.
In this session, we'll hear from KUT in Austin about their journey to redefine their own role in the local news ecosystem and we'll learn how WDAV in Davidson, NC engaged the local music community during the pandemic to create something entirely new and redefined their station's brand in the process.
In this session, we’ll share strategies, practices and tools used to guide stations on a journey that aims to flip the script on how we do journalism -- instead of reporting on communities, we report with them and for them. We will also look at ways in which we can begin to measure the impact of sustained community engagement.
This session gives examples of the first steps in what must be an ongoing journey to craft and present more inclusive and interesting playlists. We can't just talk the talk, we must walk the walk every day -- not just with annual "celebrations" or one-time special events. In this session, veteran classical music programmers share their specific tactics for implementing more diverse and inclusive playlists that serve and delight listeners EVERY DAY.
