Established by Culture & Business Scotland in partnership with Creative Scotland, Chair Matters aims to bring together and provide a valuable network for the Chairs of Creative Scotland funded organisations.
2023 autumn events:
This autumn we will be running two Chair Matters events with the theme of Negotiating the New Funding Landscape. With the new Multi-Year Funding just around the corner, Chairs and board members of Creative Scotland funded organisations are no doubt wondering what it might mean for their organisations. Will it provide the security they are looking for, or will it require a re-think about the future? Facilitating both sessions will be culture and heritage strategic leaders Jeanie Scott and Reyahn King of Culture Radar.
Managing Change – broaching challenging concepts around aligning to new funding priorities while managing the discomfort of uncertainty.
Date: Tuesday 12 September 2023
Time: 5.15pm – 7.45pm
Location: Edinburgh
Managing Risk – planning for the unknown with confidence in our reputational, financial and environmental decision-making.
Date: Thursday 23 November 2023
Time: 5.15pm – 7.45pm
Location: Glasgow
Chair Matters provides Chairs with the opportunity to explore topics and to share common issues and experiences relevant to their role.
