It offers participatory activities and conversation, using a combination of individual, small-group, and large-group work.
The day will include: developing your personal management approach; uncovering your core values & how they differ from your institution’s / your direct reports’; exploring complicated staff management issues through real-life case studies; and understanding organizational culture & how your management choices contribute to it
We know non-profits historically neither hire nor train for management skills, leaving staff unprepared for some aspects of their jobs. The SEED approach to management training emphasizes co-learning, co-creation, and thoughtful risk-taking. The SEED trio (Rachel, Rebecca, and David) have both museum-based management experience and research-based understanding of key management skills. As consultants, we have heard from both leadership and new and seasoned managers that good management is key to institutional (and individual) success.
