Ireland's newest media brand, Onic, has launched with a commitment to re-shaping the future of the audio and digital landscape in Ireland. Onic, formerly Wireless Ireland, is home to some of Ireland's best-loved radio stations: Dublin's FM104 and Q102, Cork's 96FM and C103, Live 95 in Limerick, LMFM and U105 in Belfast. The group's representative sales house, urbanmedia, will also become Onic. In a significant move, Onic also confirmed the launch of 10 new services on the much anticipated DAB+ trial across the broader Leinster area, a suite of new digital streams, an expansion of talkSPORT Ireland and newly refreshed websites. Onic has also invested heavily in visualised studios and is delighted to announce new POD and VOD offerings under the Onic Originals banner. In the coming months the group will launch the Onic App and Player, a space where it will bring all the group's live audio, podcast and visualised content together in a single destination. This new brand reflects the organisation's strategy to strengthen connections with audiences, partners and communities. With its extensive network, Onic enables brands to deliver their messages effectively, reaching diverse demographics across multiple regions - both nationally and internationally. This enhanced accessibility maximises campaign impact, creating deeper connections between brands and their audiences. Highlights from the Onic announcement include A suite of DAB+ and digital services delivering expanded consumer choice, and complementary audiences to our existing brands. These will target audiences in niche formats including Rock, Kids, Country and RnB amongst others. The expansion of talkSPORT Ireland, having secured exclusive Premier League football rights on Saturdays for the next four seasons, alongside the launch of a number of digital products. These include MNÁsplaining, a female sports focused show hosted by social media star Kayleigh Trappe, and the Beyond The 45 and 65 a GAA series featuring GAA icons Owen Mulligan, Lee Keegan and John 'Bubbles' O'Dwyer amongst others. Onic Originals will include new podcasts later in the year hosted by established Onic talent including Kathryn Thomas from Dublin's Q102 and Thomas 'Crossy' Crosse from FM104. In addition to established talent, Socially Awkward will be hosted by some of Ireland's sharpest young voices - Brandon Caufield, Shanice Griffin and Daniel Devlin and On The Kase, led by the charismatic Kasey Campion. All are shining examples of emerging talent that will appeal to younger audiences. A roadmap of consumer products, including aggregator App and Player to enhance the user experience and deliver even more choice for our audiences. A new range of cross-platform marketing and advertising opportunities for our commercial partners as we weave our new digital products into our existing radio stations to deliver national reach. Sean Barry, Managing Director of Onic, said: "Onic will be a beacon for authenticity and trusted quality content. Every day our audiences welcome us into their lives and allow us to share their day. Individually and collectively, at home or on the go, we are their trusted companion, connecting in a deep and meaningful way. We never take this for granted.

We are excited to bring together a raft of authentic and talented voices, accelerating progressive innovation and driving engagement and connection across our audiences." Brian McCarthy, Group Commercial and Operations Director, added: "We have always strived to connect our advertisers with our audience in a meaningful way, and the launch of Onic gives us even more touch points to create dynamic, effective marketing solutions for our clients.

Welcome to SEASON 4!! It's great to be back and yes, we have returned this season in style with a fabulous guest to kick off!In this first episode, Arthi is joined by Dr. Elizabeth Crosse to discuss enhancing our ability to work with expertise. Elizabeth shares her passion about lifelong learning & explains how she navigated through several learning and personal challenges, and that some of her greatest learnings came from her own personal storm as she likes to refer to it. Dr Crosse details that she found this personal storm to be a major wake up call and decided to look inwards at how she was being more than what she was doing. It was this realisation that got her thinking that working with professionals is not only about what we know but rather who we areElizabeth explains the differences between professional (Horizontal growth) and personal growth (Vertical growth) and shares how her wish is to be a provocateur to have listeners consider different perspectives of growth. Elizabeth refers to horizontal growth as ”adding apps to our phone” where as vertical growth is more like “upgrading our system.”Elizabeth shares the ability to work with expertise is all about how we're managing relationships while being able to bring our humanity. Thereafter the skills and knowledge is what enables us to have the type of connections and relationships to work with expertise.Some wise words from Elizabeth Crosse:“if I've learned something, I can then do something differently””we don't have to agree with each other to be able to move forward”Listen to the full episode for so much more insights and ideas offered by this wonderful guest.About Elizabeth:Elizabeth is a Master Certified Coach (MCC) who works as a coach, mentor & supervisor. Her practice focuses on continuous professional & personal development needed to enhance the quality of our work. Her approach has evolved from over 30 years of involvement with the coaching profession & being a research practitioner deeply interested in how coaches develop expertise. Elizabeth has navigated dyslexia & dyspraxia to transition from an early career in education to becoming a senior HR professional specialising in people development before setting up her coaching-consultancy business. She became a fellow of the CIPD, a Master Credentialed Coach with the ICF (MCC) & completed a Diploma in Coaching Supervision. She achieved three Master's degrees (Education, Counselling Psychology and Coaching & Mentoring) & a Doctorate in Coaching and Mentoring. Her journey brought an appreciation of the integrity, intellectual rigour & compassion needed to underpin any learning relationship to grow as a person and develop as a professional. Her research on continuous professional development brought a recognition of the need for a holistic approach. This is reflected in her own approach to development, which, in addition to engaging with supervision, research writing & acquiring new knowledge, also focuses on well-being.Connect with Elizabeth here:WebsiteLinkedinDo rate, write a review and share with others.Share too, your own insights from your journey based on themes from the episode - what has worked or hasn't for you.
