A piece by the magazine on Bernard Avle said \u2018the self-taught radio journalist may have his share of haters-Like every strong \u2013headed, enterprising young person-but before you tune off in disinterest, consider that Bernard Avle is now one of the most sought after radio breakfast show hosts, never mind that his station, Citi FM, came after the early birds had really established lofty standards.<\/p>\n
First he learned from the best; \u2018\u2019My great mentor in broadcasting was Komla Dumor\u2019\u2019, he said on the passing of the globally iconic BBC broadcaster who to Bernard, defined in Ghana, what modern morning radio ought to be, by how he, \u2018\u2019asked the hard questions, played the right music, and said the funniest things and seemed to be enjoying every bit of it as he did.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
Bernard, as he\u2019s affectionately called, has come into a class of his own, focusing on issues of technology, business and economics, good governance and social development with his distinctive mark of a well-researched approach to any area of discussion, which translates into the piercing and relevant questions that he treats his guests to.<\/p>\n
Little wonder he\u2019s come so far so fast given his passion for radio during his university days at Legon where , as a student in Economics, he worked at Radio Univers and moved straight to Citi FM.<\/p>\n
In the process, he obtained an MBA from the Warwick Business School in the UK. Now as Director of News, Bernard plays the role of a moderator and facilitator of local and international business, political, economic and technology conferences, whiles also overseeing News strategy formulation and execution, and managing the work of over 30 journalists daily’.<\/p>\n
