Change Management. Shaping museum leaders for challenges ahead

Nowadays, there are heavy demands on museum executives. They are supposed to open up the design of the institution of the museum while preserving all its complexity, break up obsolete organisational structures and hierarchies, and change institutional cultures. But what strategies can executives employ to successfully implement the necessary change processes and at the same time actively involve employees, stakeholders and visitors? What are the success factors for an organisational and social transformation and what key competencies are needed to be a successful leader? We would like to deal with the basic principles of leadership under the conditions of the organisational and social change of museums and show the way to a reflective practice in training sessions and discussions tailored to the needs of participants and supported by renowned practitioners.
