Many of us reach museum leadership roles with a strong background in the content area, but rather less training in business and leadership. That’s why we’re so thankful to be able to announce that last week we were awarded an IMLS grant that supports ILI’s work with one of our allied organizations – FLAME (the Forum for Leadership in Art Museum Education). This National Leadership in Museums award investigates impacts on Directors/Leadership after they’ve attended 3 valuable boot camps. The camps will cover topics such as financial acumen, strategic planning, and sense-making and will offer new tools to those charged with navigating volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environments.
