New podcast: EE Voice speaks to employee engagement

August 11, 2015 by Sharon McIntosh and Sharon Phillips Leave a Comment

Employee engagement is messy. It’s not consistently defined or measured. It’s discussed in academia, espoused by consultants and nearly every company wants to dramatically increase it. And that means employee engagement also  is exciting, relevant and can drive business results. So it’s worth a discussion.

That’s exactly the topic we’ll be addressing on a new podcast, called EE Voice, part of the FIR Podcast Network. EE – used interchangeably as abbreviation for employees or employee engagement – will be addressed through the lens of internal communications.

A new platform for a new network: The FIR Podcast Network is live

May 15, 2015 by Neville Hobson and Shel Holtz Leave a Comment

When we introduced For Immediate Release on January 5, 2005, we had no idea we’d still be podcasting more than a decade later. We didn’t know what the state of podcasting would be, that the scope of FIR would expand, or that podcast networks would be a thing.

When we started, we just needed a website for show notes and a home for our audio files.

Ten years later, we’re still here, with exactly the same website we started with. While our website hasn’t changed, though, everything else has. FIR is evolving into a podcast network, already home to The Hobson & Holtz Report along with the five podcasts we have spun off: Interviews, Book Reviews, FIR Live, FIR Cuts, and Speakers & Speeches.
