Newsroom Playbook 3: Distributed Teams

Federica Cherubini, one of six co-authors on Fathm’s Distributed Newsroom Playbook, will discuss workflows and support for working with remote employees.

ONA is hosting a 3-part series on topics our community has identified as an urgent need: best practices and data for pay-meters, workflows with remote teams, and supporting journalists of color in all areas of their news organizations. The goal of this series is to equip senior managers and executives with new insights on each of these topics, as well as feel comfortable working through the resources to inform and strengthen strategic decisions.

This series has a suggested donation amount of $49 per session, or $149 for the total series. You’ll have the opportunity in the checkout cart to donate. ONA is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Support for this event will be put toward scholarships for ONA20 Everywhere and other programs throughout the year.
