The Cultural Leadership Programme is commissioning a significant body of research to review the nature of leadership development within the cultural and creative industries and better understand the issues and challenges faced in today’s environment.
Working strategically with partners within and outwith the cultural and creative industries the CLP will use its research to create the platforms from which to develop new programmes, track progress against milestones and strengthen its evidence base for advocacy. The CLP will place these outcomes in the context of the wider environment to promote models of good practice and diverse methodologies to achieve sector ambitions.
Research and publications currently available include:
Dialogues on Leadership
Adopting Good Governance
Meeting the Challenge
Caroline Felton's Report - Governance Development Framework
