Effective Museum Management - Staff


The Boston Consulting Group invites you to participate in this preparatory survey for our comprehensive study "Effective Museum Management ". The purpose of this study is to advance discussion within the field regarding museum effectiveness and performance assessment. We also aim to understand the main challenges facing visual art museums in the 21st Century in order to identify future sources of excellence in the museum sector.

At the end of the survey, you can provide your e-mail address to be one of the first to receive a PDF copy of the "Effective Museum Management" report. Your answers will be treated confidentially and will not be associated with you in any way. The individual responses will not be shared and will only appear as a part of an aggregate report. The survey should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

If you have any questions, please contact us at zorloni.alessia@bcg.com
