In this four part series, Governing Toward the Future, organizational consultant Fred Miller describes four critical issues that orchestra boards and management must address.
I. Avoiding the Tyranny of Mission
In this vlog organizational consultant Fred Miller defines the differences between mission, vision and strategy and warns of the consequences of relentlessly pursuing an organizational mission when changes in the external environment require a different approach.
II. The Imperative of Positive Net Financial Margins and Capitalization
Fred discusses the consequences of poorly understood and deficient business models and undercapitalization.
