This Leadership in the Newsroom training programme is suitable for mid-career journalists, both staff and freelances, seeking to develop their leadership attributes to equip them with newsroom management and strategic planning skills.
The programme consists of a one-day, in-person session at various locations across the UK and Ireland.
Topics covered include:-
- The ‘Wheels’ of Collaborative Leadership
- Peer mentoring (active listening/support skills)
- The Inner Landscape (or Iceberg) Model (exploring reactivity vs. responsiveness in working relationships, taking into account feelings, needs & values).
A lack of meaningful progression in newsrooms is something that many members have raised as barriers in their career, and something the NUJ is committed to tackling across the industry. With that in mind we are particularly encouraging participation in this training opportunity from underrepresented groups in journalism.
