Achates Inspires session broadcast on Thursday 19th September at 2pm: Innovating Sustainable Business Models which will explore how cultural sector leaders are developing their business planning cycle to adapt to alternative and more sustainable business models.

It is not news to say that the last few years have been turbulent for the cultural sector and that the events of recent years in particular have left our business models no longer fit for purpose. As a result, all leaders in the sector are looking at ways we can innovate our business models to ensure the longterm sustainability of our organisations. Whilst some of this work has been prompted by the necessity of the current landscape, many leaders are also approaching this as an opportunity for meaningful, purposeled organisational development which not only ensures survival but ensures our organisations continue to deliver the greatest impact for our priority audiences and stakeholders for generations to come.

But how have they gone about this? How do you ensure your business planning cycle evolves and adapts as a tool for realising your triple bottom line of work, audiences, and the impact created with and for them whilst ensuring financial sustainability?

Join us as Achates Inspires hears from sector leaders on this topic and explores how we might use a purposeled, audienceinformed approach to organisational development and business planning.
