M4: Discussion Forum 1: Driving organizational change is notoriously difficult. Why do you think leading even modest practice change in newsrooms can be difficult? (copy)

Leading organizational change in newsrooms is challenging due to resistance to change, cultural inertia, and tight workloads that leave little room for adaptation. Resource constraints, communication barriers, and the need for strong leadership further complicate the process. Unclear objectives and lack of staff engagement can hinder motivation, while previous negative experiences and technological challenges add to the difficulty. Effective change requires addressing these issues through clear communication, adequate training, and strong leadership.
