Post's move to a brave new future

The Birmingham Post is another of the newspapers that is upending its production and moving to new integrated offices,in this case the Old Fort Dunlop buildings overlooking the M6.

Journlism.co.uk have interviewed its editor Steve Dyson, who provides some insight into the paper's move

We've gone through harsh changes here in terms of how we're restructuring things. We've taken a lot on the chin about the redundancy progamme and the new building has made a tremendous difference

he tells the site

The timing of the move is a classic management tool for the new brush style,move to a new office as redundancies take effect and Dyson agrees

We deliberately tweaked the timing of the move to coincide with the end of the consultation period for the voluntary redundancies. When we moved we chose to move without the people who had chosen to leave the company and the people who moved into these offices were the people of the future,"
