Women’s Month allows us the opportunity to listen, learn and tune into the experiences of woman leaders in the radio business. Broadcasting has been on the edge of democratic principles and conversations and in many instances has opened the discussion to the change and evolution of society and its people. Focussing attention on women remains an integral part of this process. In August, celebrating Women’s Month, our Audio Ambassador and Creative Consultant at MediaHeads 360 takes the opportunity to engage with senior leaders at Public and Commercial radio stations, touching on a variety of elements in the world of FM (female) broadcasting.

The Unsung Heroes of Production With the busy festive season in full swing, I’ve been reflecting on what it takes to bring a campaign from concept to completion.

Recipe books are more than “how to guides” for baking, cooking and grilling. Recipe books are heirlooms of heritage. They are family moments of joy and grief. Recipe books hold elements of tastes and traditions. Scribbles, notes, eared pages, cut out pictures and date notations help make recipe books a trove of history and culinary

Radio broadcasting is an interesting combination of free thinking, channelled creativity, rigid structure, and process. At times there seems to be no structure at all.
