After an extraordinary 46-year journey in radio broadcasting, including 7 remarkable years with us at Bonneville International, it's time to celebrate Steve Cottingim's well-deserved retirement!

The microphone may be off, but your legacy resonates louder than ever. Wishing you all the best in this next chapter, Steve! #RadioLegend #BroadcastingExcellence #HappyRetirement

Very awesome surprise kicking off February getting employee of the month. One of my favorite privileges and roles when I was a Regional Brand Manager and Program Director was nominating employees and recognizing them for their hard work or growth in their roles because I remembered how good that feeling felt. I remember even my prior market manager telling me that another stations employees were upset that my employees were frequently being recognized and she said "well that's because Big Mic nominates them"! Lolol The majority of us aren't doing what we do with the purpose of being recognized or being awarded, but I think we all agree we know how good it feels when it happens to you. Positive reinforcement goes a long way. Doesn't even need to be an employee of the month nod. Shoot your employees/Co workers a text letting them know they did a good talk break, produced some good imaging, recorded an awesome commercial! Call a meeting specifically to highlight their successes with no other alterior motives and come up with more goals to achieve. But end of the day very blessed to look back at these 2+ years and opportunity provided to contribute to my Bonneville International family.
