INTERCOM2012
International Committee for Management INTERCOM from 25-28 November
2012 in Sydney, Australia.
This year's conference theme is #museumchallenges.
Museums have always operated in times of change, yet the challenges
and pace of change over the last five years has been
unprecedented.Globalisation, environmental issues and climate change,
relationships with Indigenous and creator communities, diversity of
audiences, different employee mindsets, new skill sets, new media and
technologies and the global financial crisis, have placed increasing
pressure on the ways museums are managed and led.
The conference will address these issues using a mix of
conference/meeting formats designed to encourage conversation,
learning, intellectual stimulation and exchange of ideas.
