Jeff Shields, President and CEO of NBOA, takes a deep dive into the effect that the 2008 economic downturn had on virtually ever facet of operation of independent schools, especially the marketing office. Challenges are many: the effect rising tuition, ever-expanding facilities, increasing sophistication of both the business offices and the MarCom offices, and virtual schools. What you’ll learn… The changes in the business side of independent school management over the last 10-15 years. The effect that the 2008 recession had on independent schools both as it regards the business side of schools and on how schools market themselves. How tuition levels, which have been hyperinflationary for 15-20 years, affects the ability of independent schools to attract students. How the economic downturn of 2008 set in motion a widespread effort to increase the sophistication and capabilities in of the business offices at independent schools, including increasing the understanding of the markets we operate in. How a renewed focus on building new facilities is affecting they way schools market themselves, talk about themselves, and compete with other schools. The critical and changing nature of how a school describes its value to the families in its market. How schools are adapting their focus and spending on MarCom departments in the face of an increasing number and sophistication of communications channels that need to be managed. How virtual schools compete with and enhance traditional bricks-and-mortar schools. The challenges that independent schools face in the next five+ years.

Jeff Shields of local act Kleptonaut stopped by to chat about one of my favorite albums from last year, “The Golden Age of Space Travel.” Jeff was an excellent guest and shared a lot of witty insight into the creation of his music. We had a blast talking about everything from his experience as a “podcast troubadour” to the naming of his instrumental songs.

For June 3, 2007.  Twenty years ago today, the movie "The Untouchables" was released in the United States.  I talk a little about the movie, and about its significance in my personal history.After the show there is a promo for a new podcast, "Dial P for Pulp."  If you're a fan of the pulp fiction genre, go check it out!Today's episode music is "Open Ended," by Jeff Shields.  Our theme music is composed and performed by Marc Rose.

Saturday, May 12, 2007.  The final episode of "Hill Street Blues" went out over the NBC network twenty years ago today.  I talk about what made the show so groundbreaking, and some of my special memories of watching it.Today's episode music is "Open Ended," by Jeff Shields.  Theme music composed and performed by Marc Rose.After several months of painfully long hours on the day job coupled with minor illnesses that sapped my energy -- and my voice! -- this show marks the beginning of a new and much more regular run of shows.  Thanks to all of you who have stuck with me.  This is a great time to spread the word about the show, too!

Monday, February 26, 2007.  [Still playing catch-up, just a little.]For the 50th (!!) episode of "It Was 20 Years Ago Today," we return to a subject we've visited before, and will again -- the Iran-Contra scandal.  On this day, the Tower Commission submitted a report on its investigations into the scandal.  It would be the first of many, which shared a common trait of often being difficult for the average person to follow.George Santayana (1863-1952) was the person who said, "Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."Today's episode music is from "Cyndi 2nd Draft," by Jeff Shields.  Theme music composed and performed by Marc Rose.

Friday, February 23, 2007.  Twenty years ago today, the light from a supernova in the Greater Magellanic Cloud galaxy reached the Earth, after a journey of 168,000 years.  I talk about that celestial phenomenon, and a little about why I find astronomy a particularly fascinating science.The picture is an image of the gas cloud from Supernova 1987A, taken with the Hubble Space Telescope.Today's episode music is "InnaFabledCity," by Jeff Shields.  Theme music composed and performed by Marc Rose.

You haven't stepped into a time warp --this is the first of an occasional series of "lost episodes" of "It Was 20 Years Ago Today."  This episode was written and recorded for December 11, 2006.  On that day twenty years before, a number of companies registered "dot com" domain names.  There were less than 100 "dot coms" in those days, and no Internet as we know it today.  I talk a little bit about how different it was to get wired in those days.Today's episode music is "Boot Strap," by Jeff Shields.  Theme music composed and performed by Marc Rose.

Thursday, January 4, 2007.  For the first podcast of the new year, I look back at a terrible train wreck that took place twenty years ago today.  I tell a little of the story of the Chase wreck, and explain how a deadly accident on the other side of the country could have me holding my breath five years later.Today's episode music is from "Sumday," by Jeff Shields.  Theme music composed and performed by Marc Rose.
