ABSTRACT
This senior role also has the job of ‘gatekeeper’ – the person who says yes or no to programme suggestions, who takes risks with new ideas, who spots talent and encourages new presenters (or gets rid of them). In his or her mind all the time are questions such as:
● What is the purpose of this station? ● What are my success criteria? ● Are the current programmes achieving these? ● If not, how can I improve – the programmes?
