Museum Staff Engagement Workshops
Client: Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences
Location: Sydney, NSW
Year: 2018
Team building at a time of transformation
Brief
As Sydney’s Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences (MAAS) plans for its new and improved presence on the banks of the Parramatta River, museum leadership wanted to take an opportunity to help various internal teams form a common vision and shared lexicon for the opportunities and approaches that would characterise the new museum and its satellite sites.
Approach
Left Bank Co. was engaged to work with the leaders of various teams within MAAS to workshop ideas, barriers and establish new concepts and definitions. We designed and executed a program of consecutive workshops to take the team on a journey of self-discovery and play a role in achieving an outcome for which they all felt collective ownership.
Impact
These workshops were critical in developing a collaborative and supportive team atmosphere within an environment of uncertainty, preparing the team to embrace and navigate the future changes in unison.
