From Agile Disillusionment to Real Productivity – Insights into the German Broadcasting Archive’s Flight Levels journey.
Flight Levels Day 05 Talk by: Mathias Böni, Andreas Dan, Anja Hartkopf
The German Broadcasting Archive is the custodian of thousands of historical treasures of German radio and television, particularly holding assets from the times of the GDR and the Third Reich. In this case study, we explore how Flight Levels have helped in the context of German public broadcasting towards more productive, self-responsible work in the digitization and accessibility of the archives. We report specifically on the critical points, the challenges (including initial agile disillusionment), and the next steps on the ongoing journey.
