This report, drafted by the British Council, discusses the concept of Cultural leadership within the UK context. It provides a brief introduction, enumerates the challenges of cultural leadership, the interventions being developed in the UK, and provides a series of resources on: leadership programmes for arts and cultural professionals; development of independent agencies; thought leadership in arts and culture; innovation and entrepreneurship; help for under-represented groups. The document illustrates the approach the British Council has sought to identify, celebrate and develop a new generation of cultural leaders around the world through a programme of international work placements, courses, fellowships, workshops and forums. It concludes by listing the fellowships and training for cultural leaders, as well as the initiatives supporting leaders around the world.
