Martha Morris is associate professor emeritus of museum studies at the George Washington University in Washington, D.C. She has over 45 years of experience in the museum field as a manager and leader. Her ca-reer began in registration and collections management at the Corcoran Gallery of Art and later at the Smith-sonian’s Museum of American History where she eventually served as deputy director. Her work and her teaching have consistently focused on management and leadership practices, including strategic planning, project management, teambuilding, staff development, and facilities projects. As a member of the board of the Midatlantic Association of Museums she served as founding program chair of the annual Building Museums symposium. She has designed workshops, lectured and written on a number of topics including collections planning and management, exhibition development, leading change, museum facilities programs, museum mergers, and 21st century leadership skills. She is author of Managing People and Projects in Museums (2017) and co-author of Planning Successful Museum Building Projects (2009), and Leading Museums Today: Theory and Practice (forthcoming 2018). The talk is based on her personal experience as a leader at the Smithsonian Institution, and teaching and research in Museum Studies at George Washington University.
