The Cycle: Management of Successful Arts and Cultural Organizations

Я скористався гарною можливістю пройти онлайн-навчання на курсі The Cycle: Management of Successful Arts and Cultural Organizations на Coursera. Я більше дізнався про управління та менеджмент в організаціях. Дуже раджу його всім менеджерам, особливо, тим, хто працює в шоу-бізнесі та у сфері культурі.

What makes a successful arts and cultural organization? Led by DeVos Institute Chairman Michael M. Kaiser and President Brett Egan, this course will introduce you to a management theory called the Cycle which supports thriving arts and cultural organizations.
Learning from our work with managers from over 80 countries around the world, the DeVos Institute developed the Cycle as a simple, but powerful tool to assist managers in their effort to respond to an increasingly complex environment and propel their institutions to excellence.
The Cycle explains how great art and strong marketing can create a family of supporters, who in turn help the organization produce the revenue required to support even more great art the next year.
The Institute has seen the Cycle work in performing and presenting organizations, as well as museums, arts schools, and other nonprofit endeavors like service organizations, historical societies, public libraries, university programs, advocacy organizations, botanical gardens, and zoos.
By taking this course, you will learn:
• the importance of bold, exciting, and mission-driven programming in an organization;
• how long-term artistic planning can help an organization produce this work;
• how an organization can aggressively market that programming and the institution behind it to develop a family of supporters – including ticket buyers, board members, donors, trustees and volunteers;
• how an organization can cultivate and steward this family to build a healthy base of earned and contributed income; and
• how an organization can reinvest that income into increasingly ambitious programming year after year. All course material is available upon enrollment for self-paced learners.
New scheduled sessions begin each month.
