Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Make a lasting impact by launching new initiatives, inspiring others, and championing innovative approaches with this from-the-trenches guide by trusted executive mentor, entrepreneur, and leadership expert Joel Peterson. Many leaders see their roles as presidents/managers, with a primary focus on keeping results consistent with past performance and on budget. These kinds of leaders make important contributions but rarely leave a mark on the businesses they serve. For those wanting to make a lasting impact, new skills are required. Joel Peterson calls these higher-level leaders “entrepreneurial leaders,” and they create durable enterprises that deliver on their promise. After three careers and demanding roles as CFO, CEO, chairman, lead director, adjunct professor, founder, author, entrepreneur and investor, Joel Peterson is often sought as a mentor and coach by leaders and aspiring leaders. He has worked with all types of leaders and considers the entrepreneurial leader to be the highest level of influence. In Entrepreneurial Leadership, Peterson lays out a path to achieving this summit with a series of leadership maps organized around the four essential basecamps: Establishing Trust Creating a Sense of Mission Building a Cohesive Team Executing and Delivering Results These core philosophies, while easy to summarize, can be extremely difficult to implement. This book of maps and mindsets is aimed at those who hope to lead others, help them achieve their best, break new barriers, change the status quo, create a legacy, develop a brand, and enjoy a life-altering experience. Let Entrepreneurial Leadership guide you on your journey.

Book Synopsis Entrepreneurial Programming Through Partnership by : Si Chen
Download or read book Entrepreneurial Programming Through Partnership written by Si Chen and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study explores the management process through which arts leaders from different fields build a partnership for an interdisciplinary production through entrepreneurial programming. I integrate existing models to build an analytical framework to understand the partnership process in three dimensions: the innovative programming, the entrepreneurial leadership transformation, and the organization development measured by the triple bottom line principle. The unprecedented success of the multimedia performance in question shows an approachable example for arts leaders to understand the importance of entrepreneurial strategies, competencies and tactics to strengthen leadership and organization development. Specifically, I conduct a case study of the residency theatre Shadowbox Live with the Columbus Museum of Art, both in Columbus, and the key attributes that made this successful partnership possible. I identify three key attributes during the partnership: the artistic and managerial preparation to form a new venture through trust-building, the recombination of resources from both fields including technology adoption, and the flexibility and adaptability of arts leadership towards entrepreneurship. This study documents the administrative aspects of the innovative interdisciplinary arts making and encourages collaborative works that involve cross-boundary conversations, civic engagement and expanded access of art.

Book Synopsis Culture and Commerce by : Mukti Khaire
Download or read book Culture and Commerce written by Mukti Khaire and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art and business are often described as worlds apart, even diametric opposites. And yet, these realms are close cousins in creative industries where firms bring cultural goods to market, attaching price tags to music, paintings, theater, literature, film, and fashion. Building on theories of value construction and cultural production, Culture and Commerce details the processes by which artistic worth is decoded, translated, and converted to economic value. Mukti Khaire introduces readers to three industry players: creators, producers (who bring to market and distribute cultural goods), and intermediaries (who critique and rave about them). Case studies of firms from Chanel and Penguin to tastemakers like the Pritzker Prize and The Sundance Institute illuminate how these professionals construct a vital value chain. Highlighting the role of "pioneer entrepreneurs"—who carve out space for radical, new product categories—Khaire illustrates how creative professionals influence our sense of value, shifting consumer behavior and our culture in deep, surprising ways.
