Today's radio stations are leading teams made up of multiple generations of talent, from seasoned broadcasters with decades of experience to emerging personalities who are still discovering their on-air voice. While experience brings confidence, storytelling, and audience trust, younger talent often brings fresh perspectives, digital fluency, and new ways of connecting with listeners. Managing both groups effectively requires different coaching strategies, communication styles, and performance expectations. In this candid discussion, major-market radio leaders will explore how they bridge generational and experience gaps, keep talent focused on target audiences rather than personal interests, and ensure every personality remains relevant to the station's core demo. From air-checks and coaching techniques to culture-building and audience alignment, this session will provide practical insights for programming leaders looking to develop winning talent at every stage of their careers.
Join us at CONNECTION 2026 for this engaging discussion, moderated by Paul Ferguson and featuring: Stu Jeffries, Stingray Radio; Tracy Lynn, Evanov Communications; and John Ongaro, Acadia Broadcasting.
