Hi MCN?, (Apologies for cross posting.)
How do museums and other institutions identify exactly how big their digital teams should be, how they should be structured and where they should sit in the organisation? Organisations like ours are increasingly asking where and how much to invest in digital media and digital activity, and what the return on that investment will be - especially if the return can't be straightforwardly measured in visitor numbers or commercial activity. ? If you work in digital media in a museum, gallery, archive, venue or library, then we're after your help. We're hoping that you could answer some questions will help us identify some of the emerging trends. https://goo.gl/forms/TcSEvtGSTpwS4hNz1 We'll be presenting our research at Museums and the Web, Vancouver, April 2018. Our research paper will include practical advice to help organisations of all sizes understand how best to structure their digital teams - by revealing what works and what doesn't - and help them identify the ideal size of the team relative to the organisation's size and ambitions, and the skills needed. We're hoping to hear from a broad selection of digital workers in the GLAM sector across the globe. Please spread the word!
