Mike Shamus, Neuhoff Communication’s Vice President of Programming, was named by Radio Ink Magazine as one of the 66 Best Program Directors in America. Program directors’ list of responsibilities is endless. Competition for listeners has never been greater, they need to produce the best content, find and teach local talent, and produce a product the sales team can sell.
Radio Ink stated that each year they received nominations, “We go from there, with a questionnaire and a look at ratings, experience, awards, and several other factors. We reach out to programming experts in the industry for input, in all formats and in all market sizes, and we crunch the numbers. Then we crumple them up and crunch them again. We also ask each PD to confidentially rank who they believe to be the five best program directors in America. Those rankings are also used to help us decide on our final order. With all of that information, we make the final cuts and place them all in their proper order.”
Congratulations to Mike Shamus for being named among the best in the country.
