This book will help Chairs to form a strong team, build a resilient relationship with the CEO, assess how to use their considerable power, and when to show self-restraint. Board members often struggle to identify their true role, caught between the Chair and the executive board. As a result, board members frequently have doubts about their role and personal impact; doubts which are rarely acknowledged nor addressed. By focusing on the most impactful driver of success - the human behavior - the author explores how to create a strong board team whose members are clear about the team's role, are able to talk about their concerns, and are therefore also comfortable to listen, to challenge, and to support. Based on around 60 interviews around the globe and his own board experience, this book will help Chairs to form a strong team, build a resilient relationship with the CEO, assess how to use their considerable power, and when to show self-restraint. Navigating the Boardroom supports board members and managers in reflecting on how to navigate the complex web of boardroom relations and provides both practical and attitudinal tips.

Wie verändert sich Museumsarbeit, wenn Ausstellen und Vermitteln als integriertes Konzept verstanden werden? Im Kontext der kritischen Museologie befragen Museen ihre gesellschaftliche Rolle und entwerfen sich als Orte des Wissensaustauschs und einer beteiligungsorientierten Verknüpfung von Geschichte und Gegenwart. Vermittlung versteht sich dabei als eigenständige Praxis, welche Ausstellungen und Institutionen hinterfragt, erweitert und verändert. Der Band versammelt Beiträge internationaler Vertreter_innen verschiedener Museumstypen, die Einblick bieten in die vielfältigen Positionierungen und die Übersetzung der »großen Entwürfe« in die Praxis.
