Leadership Skills | Working in Teams

When we think of journalists, we often imagine that stereotypical journalist portrayed in film and television, working alone, pursuing leads, doing interviews and reporting on a story. In reality, however, doing good journalism means collaborating with lots of different people. The challenge is to help journalists learn how to be not just ethical and effective journalists but ethical and effective team members.

What You'll Learn:

• An understanding of why effective teamwork is important to good journalism.
• What practices and processes create and sustain effective teamwork.
• How to give constructive feedback and to reflect on how your own work in a group has been perceived by others.
