Ep. 32. Getting started in speechwriting

from Leadership communications with Rob Cottingham

There's no well-worn, signposted career path to being a speechwriter. That's the bad news. The good news? There are plenty of other paths in. This episode, we look at how to break into speechwriting — and some lessons from my own first big break. Music: Theme: "Good Times" by Podington Bear (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Podington_Bear/). Incidental music by Lee Rosevere (https://leerosevere.bandcamp.com/) including "Decompress," "All the Answers," "Thinking It Over" and "Telecom." Used under a Creative Commons license.
