Getty Roundtable Weblogs

In June 2004, I was one of twenty-three participants in a leadership roundtable on a particularly compelling and complex topic. Co-sponsored by the Getty Leadership Institute and National Arts Strategies, and held at the Getty Center in Los Angeles, the convening brought together fascinating folks from the nonprofit and for-profit side of cultural enterprise to search for key differences and common ground.

The event was titled: 'Managing the Creative -- Engaging New Audiences: A dialogue between for-profit and nonprofit leaders in the arts and creative sectors.' The briefing paper that framed the discussion, and the summary report of what transpired, are both available for download in PDF format below (or at NAS or at GLI)

• Background Briefing Paper (pdf format)

• Summary Report (pdf format)

My posts, linked below, were intended to explore and expand elements of the conversation, and draw in a wider group to the issues involved. If they raise ideas or questions in your mind or related to your work, please let me know.
