In this session, Ross Dagan, EVP and Head of News Operations and Transformation at CBS News and Stations, will share how CBS is reworking its internal systems to better align with the realities of modern news production.
Dagan will dive into the role of workflow in enabling more connected, responsive, and scalable journalism—from improving coordination between local and national teams to simplifying how stories move across platforms.
