Two points!<br><br><u><b>1.Presenters With Their Own Agenda?</b></u><br><br>What are they doing on your station in the first place and more importantly, why do you allow them to broadcast in the first place?<br><br>It doesn’t matter if they are volunteers! Just because you don’t pay them does not give them the right to use your station to broadcast the little radio station in their heads.<br><br>Solution! Get them to sign a voluntary agreement that says they follow the station format/guidelines designed by you - The Station Manager (you have got a written station/programmes format… don’t you?).<br><br>If they don’t sign this agreement, they don’t get within fifty yards of a mic. If they do sign and break the rules then… you can wave goodbye and replace them with someone who will follow station direction…simple!<br><br>Presenters on air with their own agenda = weak programme management.<br><br><b><u>2. Common Station Imaging Across Community Radio</u></b><br><br>NO NO NO. We are NOT a network and when we start to think we are… we move towards our own downfall!<br><br>Think individuality, creativity and innovation.<br><br>Terry Doyle<br><br>NNBC<br></div>
