Could you be a new leader for the New Orleans Tessitura Community?

Meredith Woolard (she/her) — Mon, 25 Sep 2023 17:20:36 GMT

Are you looking to develop professionally and personally, and deepen your connection with Tessitura – the technology, the members, and the wider arts and culture industry?

We are seeking 1-2 members to volunteer as Community Chairs for the New Orleans Tessitura Community and invite you to join us as a community leader. You’ll be surprised by the impact you can have on people’s lives, careers, and institutions!

The Role

Tessitura members come to community groups to expand their networks, share their expertise, and connect with peers around common interests. Community Chairs volunteer their time to build and lead these groups, and host meetups that bring members together to share best practices and build relationships. You'll:

- develop and refine critical leadership skills
- build valuable new networks
- take back tangible ideas and learnings to your work
- access training and professional development opportunities
- be recognized for your contribution internally at Tessitura and in the wider community

… and more!

Each Community Group is led by 2-3 co-chairs. Previous experience in group management or facilitation is not required. Tessitura provides initial onboarding, followed by on-going support and various resources. These include a dedicated Community Manager and invitations to events led by the community team, enabling you to connect with our other 100+ Community Chairs globally.

Good morning! We'd like to learn a little about you and what you'd like to get out of the group with this survey. There is no obligation to attend meetings if you fill out the survey, but the more we know about what you want the stronger our group will be. Thanks!

Welcome!

Hello! Welcome to the new New Orleans Tessitura Community! We are a group of Tessitura users from The Historic New Orleans Collection and the New Orleans Museum of Art who meet quarterly to learn from each other, network, and discuss all things Tessitura. I am happy to be joining Jenni Daniel of NOMA as co-chair. I have been with THNOC since 2004 and took over management of our Tessitura operations in June 2019, moving over from our marketing department.

Jenni has been with NOMA since 2017 as the director of development and was the project manager for the museum’s conversion to Tessitura in early 2021.

Let us know who you are, what your roll at your organization is, what you’d like to get out of this group. We will be sending out a survey, so be on the lookout. For the time being, we will be meeting virtually but we hope to eventually have meetups as well.
