Arts Governance by Ruth Rentschler
Based on original, in-depth research with art boards members, this is the first book to explore governance specifically within the context of cultural and creative organisations. It reflects on the changing pressures exerted on arts boards after the financial crisis and examines the new and emerging forms of board governance that are developing.'The practice of governance is both universal across all types of organisations, but also specific to different industries and organisation typesRuth Rentschler provides an excellent discussion of governance for arts organisations. Essential reading for all directors of arts organisations and non-profit organisations in general.' - Geoffrey Kiel, Emeritus Professor, University of Queensland, Australia
'This book is a remarkable 360 degrees tour about the different ways governance is exercised in arts organisations. Looking at people, their passion and their actions is a rare but so refreshing way to better understand the importance of board members and their dynamics. It is a "must read book" for everyone who wants to feel and improve arts governance.' - Johanne Turbide, Professor, HEC Montreal, Canada
