The Cultural Resource Management Program at the University of Victoria is
pleased to offer the following 6-day immersion session on PLANNING FOR
CHANGE IN CULTURAL ORGANIZATIONS for professionals in museums and related
organizations.


PLANNING FOR CHANGE IN CULTURAL ORGANIZATIONS

Effective planning establishes the foundation on which cultural
organizations grow, change, adapt, and prosper in an uncertain world. This
course explores the pervasive forces of change that are reshaping
contemporary museum roles and practices, and focuses on the ways in which
you can anticipate and lead change to ensure institutional success. You
strengthen your ability to:

        *       recognize the range of social, economic, and political
factors that influence change
        *       defend core museum principles and roles in the context of
change
        *       use a range of planning tools to anticipate and shape your
museum's response to change
        *       analyze the implications of change
        *       implement and manage change strategies

The critical roles of community values and organizational mission in the
planning process are stressed throughout the course.
