S1E14 : Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
Change is a constant in newsrooms. Both the technology involved and the methods of storytelling continue to be revolutionized as efficiencies are sought and new platforms emerge.
In this episode, we ask: Rather than being reactive to change, how do you effect long-lasting, transformative change within a news organization? Has the fact that we have all had to adapt over the last year made journalists more receptive to change? Or will working practices return to how they were before the pandemic?
Our Guest This Episode
As Head of Change for BBC News and Current Affairs, Charlotte Eimer oversees complex transformation. The most significant project at the moment is modernizing BBC News, which aims to increase the impact of BBC News journalism, reshape how it commissions content to reach new audiences, and provide value for all.
Now a Chartered Project Professional, Charlotte started her BBC career as a journalist covering Latin America. She is an experienced editor who has been responsible for coordinating the daily production of news and information services across the globe. Charlotte was program director of a digital transformation that redesigned BBC Monitoring’s operating model, shifted the department to a culture of continuous improvement, delivered significant annual savings, and brought about a step change in customer metrics. The program won the 2019 MCA Award for Change and Transformation in the Public Sector.
