In August of last year, Vermont Public, our organization, got a new CEO, Vijay Singh. He came to VP by way of two public radio stations in California and while this is Vijay's first time being a CEO, he has had a hand in leadership, and ushering companies through times of deep change. A skill that’s currently being tested as over a month ago, Congress voted to rescind more than $1 billion in federal funding for PBS and NPR. In this episode, Vijay sat down with Homegoings host Myra Flynn just two days after Vermont Public eliminated 15 positions and changed two full-time positions to part-time. This is their conversation.
