"...[W]e’ve also witnessed our collective ability to not only adapt to new ways of living and working, but to reexamine outdated and often oppressive notions of productivity, worship of work, and our value as human beings beyond what we contribute to capitalism." @ashtonlattimore
So we decided to pilot a 4-day workweek for three months, and see what happened to our workflows, productivity, mental health, fundraising, audience growth, all of it. And the wild thing is ... it worked! prismreports.org/2022/09/15/…

🧵 We wrapped @lenfestlab earlier this year, but trust building between newsrooms & residents continues. To support the ongoing work, here are things we learned from centering communities in news product development by collaborating & co-designing with @NKCDC and @BrownInstitute.
3/ The 5 benchmarks that resonated were:
1 - Using Active verbs in headlines
2 - Headlines that center people over things or institutions
3 - Amplifying community voices
4 - Context being more impactful than sentiment
5 - Follow-up stories
