The arts are a uniquely human endeavor. It is important that arts leaders capture that human element while remaining part of the industrial systems they operate in. The key to this balance is a healthy organization culture. This book provides a short guide to modern concepts as they can be applied to the arts. And in the face of the diverse perspectives regarding organization culture, we combine and make sense of these ideas for quick application.
As with all quick reads in the Arts Leadership Series, the first part of the writing will bring in the thoughts and theories of the author and common literature. The second part will allow readers to compare what they have learned with the experienced perspectives of current arts leaders through candid, transcribed interviews. With both theory and experience combined, readers become part of a transformational encounter to advance the future of the Arts Leadership field.
