The League of American Orchestras’ 2022 Midwinter Managers Meeting, “Leadership in a Time of Change” https://americanorchestras.org/event/2022-online-midwinter-managers-meeting/, will take place virtually on January 31-February 1 and will offer two days of professional development and peer connection in a deep dive into what it means to lead during a period of rapid change. Open to League-member orchestra executive directors and administrators of youth orchestras, the Midwinter Managers Meeting will feature inspiring speakers, the opportunity to interact with other CEOs in your budget group, and an examination the roles that leaders play at their orchestras. Nancy F. Koehn, the James E. Robison Chair of Business Administration at Harvard Business School, will launch the Meeting with a keynote address.
