Our Response to Common Challenges

Since its inception, the DeVos Institute has advised thousands of individuals, organizations, governments, and foundations throughout the United States and in more than 80 countries on six continents. Through this work, the Institute has addressed many of the most pressing issues and challenging questions facing the cultural sector:

• How does the DeVos Institute design its training programs for managers and their boards?
• How is the role of the arts manager shifting on the international stage?
• Why is fundraising from individuals increasingly important, especially in countries with a strong history of government support for the arts?
• Why is it so crucial to integrate fundraising efforts with an organization's other endeavors?
