Chapter 6 in Dynamic Change Management, 2024, pp 113-127 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The German television and advertising market has been undergoing dramatic changes for years. Changes in user behavior and a decline in TV ratings are putting many media companies in Germany under massive pressure. This development requires a reorganization and restructuring of media companies in a data-driven and global competitive environment. Companies must now recruit and develop digital skills in order to remain competitive. The dynamic change requires a dramatically fast adaptation to the new realities of the digital age. The case study on the transformation of company Ω in response to the disruptive changes in the media landscape offers a compact insight into the challenges and successes of the strategic transformation process at media company Ω, which has been endeavoring to replace traditional business models with new innovative ones since 2017. The prerequisite for this was to take structural, economic, and organizational-cultural measures in all areas. The case study illustrates the complexity of change processes and the importance of change leadership, strategy, and management. It also discusses the relevance of social issues for media companies that go beyond the purely entrepreneurial level, so that the long-term financial success of the company can be secured and a positive contribution to society can be made.
