The free 2027 Museum Planning Calendar is ready, and this week Amy is asking listeners to look at it a little differently: not just at what the museum is doing next year, but at who is going to do it.
Key Takeaways:
A museum planning calendar isn't just a scheduling tool. It's a staffing decision.
A shared calendar gives the whole museum a North Star, so every department understands which projects are all hands on deck.
To prevent staff burnout, map each priority on your calendar to the people responsible. Look for the months where the most big things land, find the name that shows up most often, and ask how you can help, whether that means starting earlier, simplifying, sharing work across departments, or letting something go.
