About

The future of media is digital. As a result, public service media (PSM) must engage in organizational transformation to meet the changing needs and expectations of a digital world.

Successful transformation means applying digital culture, practices, processes, and technology to rethink and redefine how organizations operate.

The advent of the COVID-19 crisis has made the case for transformation in the clearest possible way: The imperative is critical, and the cost of failure has risen exponentially.

The digital transformation initiative (DTI) was established to support EBU Members through this process by providing bespoke services, tools, and expertise.

How we help

Future of Work

COVID-19 has fundamentally altered how we work and even how we understand the jobs that we do.
A lot has been discussed in terms of emergency responses and crisis management, but it is now clear that in many respects the old days are gone for good, and it is time to make decisions for the long term.

As we move forward, Members are looking to find the balance between what worked before, what has been learnt during the crisis, and what will need to happen to succeed in the future. The DTI team have set-up a dedicated community for Members to engage in an open discussion, share best practice, and look at the COVID crisis and its long-term impact on the ‘future of work’.

Some issues and topics being covered:

• Organizing for a permanently distributed workforce
• Impacts on people, infrastructure, technology or processes
• How do we measure the effectiveness of work from home?
• Emerging policies and/or process
• Industry best practice and trends on future hybrid working models

To join the community, please use this link to request access to the Future of Work Microsoft Teams space.
