About Paul Ihander

A believer in pushing for and providing relevant and compelling content in the sports and news/talk arenas. Understanding our business reaches beyond audio. Why scream at listeners 24/7, when it is much easier to engage them 24/7 on every media platform at our fingertips.A proven team leader and creative game changer. When charged with reshaping image, culture or both, operations and communication improve under my watch as program director, assistant program director and news director. My stations always registered immediate growth in performance, attitude and revenue and continued paths of ratings success. Working hand-in-hand with talent and constantly coaching presentation, many of my employees in news, talk and sports have made leaps into the NY and LA markets and top positions in the broadcast industry. I excel at creating beneficial relationships with every member of the team, from the technical to the business side, forging positive outcomes and ROI. PD and APD experience in Sports, News/Talk and AC formats.Fantasy Football, college football, and NBA specialist. Broadcaster in play-by-play and color roles for hundreds of high school and college football, basketball and baseball games.
