His deep industry knowledge, commitment to people, and steady leadership have set the standard for our business in Sacramento. To our colleague, mentor, and friend – thank you for sharing your talents with Bonneville these past 7 years and for your incredible contributions to broadcasting throughout your distinguished career.

Way to go Michael Buhrman! Congratulations on the recognition from the Bonneville Denver team!
Over 21 years of radio broadcasting and digital experience both as a Regional Brand Manager/Program Director & On-Air Personality.
Very awesome surprise kicking off February getting employee of the month. One of my favorite privileges and roles when I was a Regional Brand Manager and Program Director was nominating employees and recognizing them for their hard work or growth in their roles because I remembered how good that feeling felt. I remember even my prior market manager telling me that another stations employees were upset that my employees were frequently being recognized and she said "well that's because Big Mic nominates them"! Lolol The majority of us aren't doing what we do with the purpose of being recognized or being awarded, but I think we all agree we know how good it feels when it happens to you. Positive reinforcement goes a long way. Doesn't even need to be an employee of the month nod. Shoot your employees/Co workers a text letting them know they did a good talk break, produced some good imaging, recorded an awesome commercial! Call a meeting specifically to highlight their successes with no other alterior motives and come up with more goals to achieve. But end of the day very blessed to look back at these 2+ years and opportunity provided to contribute to my Bonneville International family.

Great leadership makes such a difference. 💙
This team. I honestly don’t think I could ever find the right words to express just how much they mean to me. Every day, they challenge me to be better and lift each other up with the kind of dedication and respect that goes beyond the ordinary. I’m a better person because of them, and I’m endlessly grateful to be on this journey toward greatness together.
