CEO for a Day - Elvis Duran and the Morning Show

            The Elvis Duran and the Morning Show has been on for years so the routine is very consistent each day that the show is on. Everyone knows what their responsibilities are and know that they need to get done on a very precise schedule considering the show is live. The show is recorded at New York’s z100 radio station, which is run by Clear Channel Media and Entertainment. This summer, Clear Channel began enforcing a new program called WorkDay, which employees must sign in and out of each day of work as well as request vacation days. Though in theory this may be a good way to keep track of hours, there are many limitations to this program that upset the z100 employees. For example, the way it is set up the program dissuades workers from working overtime. This prohibits people from going above and beyond, which is necessary in this creative industry. As CEO of this company I would rid of this program. Also, since a lot of the work done at the station, especially that I do, requires assitstance from people other departments, namely video and web. This can often get frustrating because everyone is extremely busy and many times do not have enough time in the work day to get to projects that are not their own. As CEO, I would make the work environment more cohesive, allowing for the various departments to work together and get projects done more quickly.
