In this episode, Walter Lanier talks to Kendra Ingram, who is moving from Milwaukee to Pittsburgh to become the CEO of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, which is a performing arts organization that also has a bit of a visual arts element.
Kendra highlighted the necessity for leaders to drive improvement and progress by taking a leadership role in Arts and Culture and how it could have great impact. She pointed out that money is not everything, as having core values that align with those making decisions for you can be crucial to finding career fulfillment.
Listen to Kendra to learn more about the importance of being intentional in diversifying your network and breaking out of your circle to gain insights from different types of people. Connections beyond your innermost circle can push your understanding and personal growth further. That’s why diversity of thought within network relations should not be understated.
Episode Highlights:
06:22 - In our business, you know, most of these arts organizations are fairly flat. So, if you want to move up, you typically have to move out.
11:48 - Where you truly have the greatest impact is in that decision-making role. You really are driving the strategy and vision for the organization.
13:19 - I think my biggest learning lesson in my first executive director position was that my voice carries more weight than it did when I was a colleague.
37:51 - They hired me as a CEO, not Chief Diversity Officer. So, yes, we need to represent and lift up this work. But honestly, I've told the Board, "I'm not doing it all by myself."
