Museums must change to illuminate the histories, cultures, and social issues that matter to their local population. Based on a unique longitudinal ethnographic study, Transforming Museum Management illustrates how a traditional art museum attempted to transform into a more inclusive and community-based institution. Using open systems theory and the Buddhist concept of mutual causality, it examines the museum’s internal management structure and culture, programs and exhibitions, and mental models of museum workers. In providing both theoretical and practical foundations to transform management structures, this accessible volume will benefit stakeholders by proposing a new culture and structure to arts institutions, to change practice to be more relevant, diverse, and inclusive. This book will be an invaluable resource for researchers and advanced students of museum studies, cultural management, arts administration, non-profit management, and organizational studies.

This book centers on museum management with particular focus on risk management. It sees the museum as a modern institution that, in addition to its classical heritage function (collections management), also provides an educational function and implements this education through experience (the experiential function of the museum). It represents a combination of academic excellence and experience from real managers from museums and other public institutions. Additional topics such as strategic and operational museum management and museum research management are discussed and case studies from daily management practice are included.

This new edition offers updated information on the key aspects of museum practice that dominate today – everything from “flatter” organizational models, shared leadership, the efflorescence of digital practice and complexity in the field, museums and social justice, the hard work and positive rewards of community engagement and partnership, platform “balance” to alternative revenue models. All new contemporary “snapshots” provided by practitioners and drawn from museums and galleries around the world bring the principles to life and digitally-accessed links and resources (in the e-book) round out the relevance and usefulness of this third edition.
