The arts industry is intrinsically marked by talented artists who make all of it possible. Yet, the discussions revolving around leading such talent are slim. And more than that, non-artistic talent (managerial employees, for example) are frequently excluded from the modern discussion in arts management literature. This writing encompasses both aspects into a succinct discussion on the arts leader's role in hiring, firing, retaining, developing, and managing all talent within arts organizations.
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.
