Syllabus
- Arts and Culture - Value Then, Value Now, Value Tomorrow
- We welcome you to this five-unit course with a brief history of the world relative to arts and culture and where we are now. What is the substance of value (objective/subjective) – to whom, for what? What are the essential and timeless issues facing us? How do we connect and interlock mission and value to be supportive, contingent and flexible?
- Form Follows Function: Organizational Structures Aligned to Purpose
- How do we deliver on value? This week explores form and function of organizations. By the end of the unit, you will clearly understand organization structures – historic and behavioral biases that keep us from changing current structures, frameworks and logic that build better structures. And you will better understand risk - how best to identify and manage it.
- Who Are We For?
- To answer this question we need to understand and evaluate the critical features of our external environment. This will give us context to identify the unique values organizations can bring to communities that build support and allow for stronger collaborations. We will be better able to balance artistic and economic choices, and create differentiation and positioning that attract, serve and keep participants and customers.
- Where Do We Stand? Making Choices
- A tension exists between artistic/mission and economics. As much as we’d like to try, we can’t be everything to everyone. We must find alignment and balance. How do you recognize and systematically respond to changes in your community? In this unit we’ll explore advancing your mission through a sharp focus on customers and markets; how best to understand the needs and interests of stakeholders; how to identify the best target-customer segments for your organization/project; and how to attract and retain those customers.
- Building Support & Finding Legitimacy
- Who determines value and how do you influence that determination? In this unit, we look at meaningful measures and meaningful communication. How do you test value? How do you make timely decisions? How do you communicate to the vast variety of stakeholders who support your organization or will support your organization?

5Eleftheria Kalou completed this course, spending 15 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be medium.
It was a very well organized course, focused on the subject, and the methology too. Very usefull material for life. Both of the PHD teachers were very exact and qualified for the specific subject and even more as i realized but i didn t like the way we had to grade ourselves as, as learners we are not qualified in that level, and even if some are we are not that helpfull, specific and creative in grading so as to give the most to our colleague. i would recomended it anyway. -
