What Newsroom Leaders Need to Start - and Stop - Doing Now
Here are Porter's main points:
What Newspaper Leaders Must Start Doing Today
-
Start pointing ahead
-
Start talking More
-
Start listening even more
-
Start being less impatient
-
Start being more persistent
-
Start crying wolf - and meaning it (make sure that your newsroom knows that change is mandatory)
What Newspaper Leaders Must Stop Doing Today
-
Stop the bullplop about time - "Lack of time? Sorry, that's a proxy for lack of will"
-
Stop using the First Amendment as an anchor - "It is the principles of journalism that are important, not the form in which they are practiced."
-
Stop singing the pay your dues blues - The average age of a newsroom employee is 41; newsrooms need more young people.
-
Stop thinking that listening to readers dumbs down the paper - the paper is published for readers, thus it must be presented the way that they desire
-
Stop pretending that the "newspaper" is about paper - move newsroom operations online
-
Stop using old blueprints for new resources - "Change produces anxiety, but it is the role of leadership to guide employees through uncertainty and toward success."
