FY27-29 STRATEGIC PLAN
Honest stories that bring Tennessee together
Board of Directors, September 2026
Covers and dividers are solid Navy or Medium Blue with white type and the white logo; one circular photo crop bleeds off two edges. Title Case, left-aligned, no effects.
Nashville PBS serves Middle Tennessee across four broadcast channels, the free PBS app and PBS KIDS. This section sets out where the audience is today and the three commitments that follow from it.
Where viewers find us
Streaming grew faster than broadcast for the third year, while broadcast remains the largest single source of viewing time. Members who stream give more often, not more.
1.1 StaffingAdd one producer to the digital team and move scheduling to a shared calendar by the second quarter.
What this means
Plan digital first, then adapt for broadcast, not the reverse.
Body 12pt black, 1.5 leading, never justified. Major headings ride a full-width Yellow (or Navy) bar in 20pt bold; numbered strategies are bold labels on a Yellow block; pull quotes are italic on a Yellow banner. The header carries the small color logo, the footer the page number.
