Well, my first multimedia presentation in Chile was probably the hardest, but the gathering seemed energized by what I was saying. I wasn’t sure before I started if what I was going to talk about would be too simple and obvious, but apparently the assembled managers and directors found at least some meaning and originality to what I had to say.
I challenged the journalists there to come up with one way to encourage and incentivize conversations; and I have to say that for a group that was thrown into the deep end of a pool, and asked to come up with something on the spot, they did rather well. More than that, I think that the process of getting together and talking about what they think the future of newspapers and radio stations could or should be can’t be bad.
Now on to more presentations here in Santiago and in Concepcion. I’ll post more when I finally get some time in my hotel, they’re keeping me busy here.
