Dennis Clark loves nothing more than helping talent and programmers make great radio. A lifelong radio junkie, he instantly knew that working with personalities was his calling when he joined the team of Rick Dees, the legendary LA morning man, over 35 years ago. Since then, he’s developed an unmatched track record of success developing new radio talent, strengthening established talent and training programmers on how to coach their teams most effectively. In this special Programming Summit session, you’ll get the chance to ask Dennis questions about talent management, how he would deal with particular situations, and chat about what advice he’d give. He’ll share his tips and methods from working with some of the best in the business and really drill down into detail, so you’ll leave with some great new techniques to coach your team of presenters. Bring your questions and get ready for an amazing hour of conversation!
