Online Meeting with Professor Ruth Rentschler OAM

 "Gender and ethnic diversity on arts boards: Does policy follow practice or practice follow policy?"

Given the State Government focus on arts boards, governance and diversity in the independent consultants review that resulted in the Arts & Culture Plan 2019, effective governance is under examination in policy and practice. Where do SA arts boards stand regarding representing the community? What do they look like? What do insiders on arts boards say about board composition and their effectiveness as directors? Drawing on National research, Ruth provides the latest insider views. 

Professor Ruth Rentschler OAM (BA Hons Melbourne; PhD Monash) is a management scholar in the context of arts and culture, with a history of implementing change programs, bringing to fruition innovative curricula (online and face to face), boosting research and teaching; while developing an international profile as a researcher.
