QuicksmART - Training with a heart!
26 March 2010
"Speakeasy’s experience of A+M is of people who care. Nurturing creativity, and creative people, should never be a formulaic process. Training with A+M has made us feel valued,
supported, considered and cared about. That’s a legacy equally as strong as all the practical stuff we’ve learned."
Another of our legacy programmes was QuickSmART, a concentrated residential programme for arts managers and leaders tasked with the strategic and organisational development of
their organisation. QuickSmART provide an opportunity to review the way in which an organisation works and underpin its long-term viability, compare experiences and share and
develop real plans for organisational growth and change. Debbie Kingsley delivered the programme for us, very fitting as in her former role of Arts Development Officer in
Coventry, Debbie was a key component in setting up Arts+Media. QuickSmART allowed a learning community of senior arts professionals to come together to share
practice and integrated practical action learning tasks as well as mentoring support for the duration of the programme.
