Description

If we think consumers are looking at arts organizations just to experience great art, we’ve got it all wrong. Instead, customers are “hiring” organizations to solve a problem, meet a need, or do a job they need done in their life. That’s the premise of Jobs to Be Done Theory, developed by Harvard Business Professor Clayton Christensen.In this episode, Clayton Christensen Institute Chief of Staff Ruth Hartt, who's a former opera singer, joins Aubrey to talk about the Jobs to Be Done framework through an arts lens to better market to new audiences.Ruth also shares examples from the wild — real classical music ads done right and wrong — as she unpacks Jobs to Be Done Theory. If you want to see the visuals Ruth talks about, you can watch that part of the conversation here.Visit Ruth’s website and subscribe to her arts marketing hall of fame at https://www.cultureforhire.com/.

This new podcast is about how to shake up the old way of arts management and compose a different tune: that there is a way to regain relevance and audiences, to make our organizations more inclusive, to develop high performing teams, to get younger attendees in the seats and on the donor rolls, and to generate hundreds of millions more dollars in revenue, all in order for arts and culture to flourish in a post-pandemic world. Hosted by “the Steve Jobs of classical music” (Observer) and “the Sheryl Sandberg of the Symphony” (LA Review of Books), each episode Aubrey Bergauer answers your questions about the offstage work of arts organizations and the administrators, artists, and board members who make them run.
