At The Mic / Au micro
Welcome to At The Mic, a podcast brought to you by Arts Consultants Canada, association des Consultants canadiens en arts. ACCA is Canada’s national association of professional consultants dedicated to supporting a vibrant and sustainable arts and culture scene.
Nous vous souhaitons la bienvenue au balado Au Micro ACCA. Quelques épisodes seront en français et nous vous offrirons un service de traduction des transcriptions afin de ne rien manquer!
At The Mic/ Au micro covers contemporary issues and ideas about our current arts and culture ecology. In every episode we will feature an ACCA member who specializes in one of those issues in conversation with a guest moderator. Featured topics will include everything from leadership coaching to governance, new business models and equity in the arts. There will be a new episode of 30 minutes or so over each of the next ten months and we encourage you to check out those of value to you and your organization. We are here to give you a hand as we all navigate the changing world in which you operate.
