This is an Authentic Interview with Richmond’s very own Andrew Freiden, Executive Weather Producer at NBC Channel 12.
In this episode, you hear us talk about:
- Andrew’s early career in broadcasting.
- A time when he turned down a broadcast promotion.
- His thoughts about local celebrities and the ego that goes along with being recognized in public.
- Andrew shares a story a previous boss who focused on the wrong things and mostly managed through email.
- Andrew shares a great example of how intentional he is with the words that he uses every day. Even the words he uses in his family. Did you know there is a difference between the words, “Sleep” and “Nap”?
- In addition to talking about leadership, we get a few science lessons about your air conditioner, and the wind chill produced from a ceiling fan.
- Let’s not forget the reason why Andrews phone case is pink.
- and much, much more.
Andrew is so funny during this interview we almost could have billed this event as a comedy routine.
The interview is so much fun and entertaining but at the same time Andrew drops some terrific value bombs about leadership and productivity, you end up learning without even realizing it. You will know exactly what I mean when you get to a certain part of this interview.
