Private workshop for staff of 24Sata.
This workshop has recently been give for the staff of France24, KircherBurkhardt, Al Ahram and other top digital content companies.
My family and friends have asked me to tell them my impressions from the last 30 days spent training journalists overseas. I was out of country for the entire month of February with stops in Germany, Denmark, Italy, Croatia, and Egypt. I could start this start this story by deglamorizing it and recalling that the last time I saw my luggage was when I boarded this wee Alitalia turboprop at seven a.m. for a flight from Zagreb to Milan.
Flying over the Adriatic Sea
Perhaps it was while we were buzzing low over the Adriatic, the airline decided I would be be better off wearing the same clothes for four days in Italy. In the end, it took 13 days and dozens of calls (And lost time) to have my bag shipped home to Chicago. Every call to Alitalia led to a new promise of delivery and so I kept waiting. They lied - every time. That’s another blog item for another day.
I am in Zagreb all week running a workshop for editors from the paper 24Sata.
Here is a short clip showing how locals pay for a tram ride with their mobile phone.
A very broad insight, knowledge and perspective on the media
Presenting with Robb at IFRA workshop in Kuala Lumpur was a pure pleasure. Although I came there as a presenter (of my newspapers’ success) I learned a lot from Robb’s presentations. I was fascinated by the wideness of his expertise and a very broad insight, knowledge and perspective on the media he has demonstrated. Robb knows what the media in the future need . . .
