Today marks the release of the 6th and final episode of the Leader X podcast I’ve been working on.
Lucy Barkas is an author with a incredible theory on how the next generation of business leaders are equipped with more tools than they realise to be great at what they do.
Lucy came to me looking to produce a series that would lead up to the release of the book. Explaining the theories and making the world aware of her research. She wanted it to be engaging, and compete alongside the thousands of other leadership podcasts that were available. My experience in commercial radio comes in very handy in these instances. Being engaging and relatable to the audience is key and there are many ways you can maintain someone’s concentration. I came up with some features, inserts and scripting that would help out.
After a few hours editing and uploading, we had a six series podcast about the different areas she explores in the book. We spread these out over short conversations, engaging features and little inserts to break it all up. The feedback about the length and structure was particularly pleasing. Better still for Lucy, she’s now into podcasting and wants to do more!
