Rezensionen

"Effective change management is one of the most essential skills for any leader - this book is a great reader for those new to leadership and those who need an insightful refresher. It's accessible with real and relevant examples and based clearly on the broad experience of the authors and the individuals and organisations they've worked with. It's the sort of book you'll pick up for one purpose and then find that you're drawn into - wanting (and needing) to read more and more."

Iain Watson, Director, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums

"Managing Change in Museums and Galleries inspires, educates and empowers the reader to approach change in their museum with confidence. It is the book that I wish I'd had to

support me over the last 25 years of my museum career. It applies concepts and theory to real life challenges, drawing on strong case studies from in and outside the museum sector. It is an invaluable guide to navigating change, and the challenges and opportunities it brings, in museums today."

Emma Chaplin, Director, Association of Independent Museums



"This publication [...] draws on the authors' considerable experience in the sector, and it shows. Suitably anonymised or tastefully vague examples are trotted out when needed but mostly you definitely get a vibe of elders sharing their wisdom [...] The use of quotes is much more effective at conveying what a chapter is trying to do and reminds me a little of [...] another experience-based and well researched book we reviewed a while back."
