SESSION 7: Winning Strategies to Manage Change
Day 2 – Wednesday 25th May 2011, 1400 – 1530
Change is inevitable and unsettling as the broadcast industry manages diverse needs change will require in the digital world. Managing change calls for a new strategic mindset, right vision, leadership, and effective stakeholder engagement. Thoughtful planning and sensitive implementation are critical in determining failure or success. Are CEOs and managers ready and prepared for change? What do they want to achieve with change? How can broadcasters empower their people to understand change and engage them in accelerating and implementing it with minor disruption?
