AIM Launches New Hallmarks Governance Programme

One of the Hallmarks identified by AIM as contributing to a Prospering Museum is Governance. Successful museums are those where Trustees and senior staff or volunteers understand their different roles and work together towards a shared purpose – so how can we ensure that harmonious relationships are established and nurtured?

To support Trustees from AIM member organisations, AIM has just launched the first in a new series of development activities as part of its overall AIM Hallmarks Governance Programme. Supported by Arts Council England, AIM has created regional events across England so that Trustees can meet other board members from different organisations, share experiences and discover practical ideas.

These informal and useful sessions will explore best practice by posing scenarios for discussion which will enable Trustees to share actual experiences. This will result in constructive actions for Trustees to take back to their respective organisations to help them prosper. These sessions are free for Trustees of AIM member organisations and can be booked by using the form at the end of this page.
