Leading Digital Transformation in Cultural Organisations

A full day workshop with Jane Finnis from Culture24 for cultural leaders and decision makers to improve digital literacy and confidence, and gain practical strategies to drive digital transformation in their organisation.

Supported by British Council Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pacific

Now more than ever cultural organisations need a digitally literate workforce that understands the ways in which digital technologies, content and culture can best serve their mission. It is down to those in leadership positions to create the right conditions to meet those challenges.

This discursive workshop will combine strategy, theory and expert insight with practical advice and peer support. It offers an approach that you can use to become an agent of change inside your own organisation.

By the end of this workshop you will have:

  • improved your own digital literacy and understanding

  • a fuller understanding of the opportunities around digital culture for your organisation

  • a range of inspirational yet pragmatic and relatable case studies

  • practical next steps to implement in your organisation

  • a new network of peers all tackling similar issues

The workshop uses the framings and definitions for digital activity, digital skills and digital maturity drawn from One by One project, a multi-stakeholder, University of Leicester-led, international initiative working to build digital confidence in GLAM organisations, of which Culture24 is a founding partner. Also the ‘Guide to Digital Transformation in Cultural Heritage’ produced by Culture24 with the Europeana Initiative-wide Digital Transformation Task Force.
