September 2002 saw the beginning of the Art of Management and Organization Conference series in London. The aim was, and continues to be, the exploration and promotion of the arts (in the most inclusive sense) as a means of understanding management and organization(al) life. This conference series has given rise to a vibrant global community of praxis – including scholars and practitioners. The conference has resided in London (2002), Paris (2004), Krakow (2006); and in 2008 will travel to Banff, Canada.
Sessions include
Leadership As An Art: The Embodiment of Creative Thought
Large Institutions in the Creative Economy
Creating, Managing and Leading Creativity -what, why and how?
