The purpose of this book is to explore understandings of leadership and creativity and how they are seen to connect in ‘not for profit’ arts organisations. Creativity and artistic practice are generally agreed as being at the core of an arts organisation’s mission. Using a case study methodology, the study focuses on six different arts organisations. The study demonstrates that there is a high degree of recognition by those involved within these arts organisations, of the need for a creative culture and for creativity in general. However, while it is recognised that a creative culture and creativity are seen as important, leadership as the determinant of that creativity, is not necessarily viewed as the major catalyst. It is acknowledged though that the changing environment, which is placing an increased emphasis on income generation, can have a negative effect on an art organisation’s creative culture and its leadership. This book should appeal to all those involved with the arts sector and the creative industries, as well as those who are more broadly interested in understandings of leadership and creativity in the workplace.
