Human Resource Management for Heritage Organizations

The Heritage Management Organization

Training Heritage Leaders

Autumn 2019

Executive Leadership Development in Heritage Management Workshops 

Human Resource Management 

for

Heritage Organizations

4-6 October, 2019

Location: Meropeion Foundation, Dionysiou Areopagitou 45, 117 42 Athens, Greece & Syllogos ton Athinaion, Kekropos 10, Plaka, 10 558 Athens, Greece

This workshop explores the crucial subject of people management in not-for-profit Heritage Organizations. People are simultaneously the largest single item of operating costs and the only source of conservation, service and innovation. They are therefore the key asset in all organizations focused on those objectives and the management of people is a key concern for executives.

During these 3 days, the importance of human resource management in not-for-profit organizations and the distinctive nature of such organizations (public and non-government; large and small) will be investigated. The different stages of management of employees and volunteers will also be examined, in an effort to identify the key issues and the practical options available to managers who are not HRM experts. 

The course involves working with the participants to surface their issues and concerns, to encourage mutual sharing and learning and to developing ideas and networks. 

Please note that these three days offer an opportunity for reflection and learningand for that, active participationfrom all course members is required. This course does not come with a pre-established set of answers. It is the firm belief of its organizers and leaders that whilst it is possible to learn from existing research and experience, there is no ‘one best way’ that fits every organization: people management is different in every context and it is the responsibility of managers in each case to understand their situation and to take appropriate action. 

The workshop’s leader, Chris Brewster, is Professor of International Human Resource Management at the Henley Business School, University of Reading, UK. In addition to his teaching role and consultancy assignments for many private sector organizations, Prof. Brewster has worked with the United Nations, many of the UN organizations and agencies, the European Commission, the IFC and the AfDB, NGOs and other international organizations on various aspects of their own human resource management. A prolific author with 30 books and over 200 articles published, Prof. Brewster has also been entrusted with drafting the new six-year HRM strategy for UNESCO and was awarded in 2002 the Georges Petitpas Memorial Award by the World Federation of Personnel Management Associations (WFPMA) in recognition of his outstanding contribution to international human resource management.

Η Εστία του Ελληνικού Ιδρύματος Πολιτισμού στο Βουκουρέστι, μαζί με τη Διεθνή Εταιρεία Φίλων Νίκου Καζαντζάκη (ΔΕΦΝΚ) και το Γαλλικό Ινστιτούτο στο Βουκουρέστι, σας προσκαλεί στην διάλεξη „L’œuvre, la pensée de Kazantzaki et ses liens avec Panaït Istrati et la France”, που ο κ. Γιώργος Στασινάκης θα παρουσιάσει στις 14 Μαΐου, στο Atrium του Γαλλικού Ινστιτούτου, από τις 19:30.

Η Εστία του Ελληνικού Ιδρύματος Πολιτισμού λειτουργεί στο Βουκουρέστι από το 2008 και ο κύριος στόχος της είναι η προώθηση του ελληνικού πολιτισμού στη Ρουμανία. Η ΔΕΦΝΚ ιδρύθηκε το 1988, στη Γενεύη, κατόπιν επιθυμίας της Ελένης Καζαντζάκη και του μεγάλου θεατρανθρώπου Γιώργου Ανεμογιάννη, ιδρυτή του Μουσείου Νίκου Καζαντζάκη στους Βαρβάρους – Μυρτιά (Κρήτη). Ο κύριος σκοπός του είναι η προώθηση – με διάφορους τρόπους (και ιδιαίτερα με μελέτες) – του έργου και της σκέψης του μεγάλου συγγραφέα και ποιητή Νίκου Καζαντζάκη (1883-1957). 

Ο Γιώργος Στασινάκης γεννήθηκε το 1941 και σπούδασε στο Μπορντό της Γαλλίας Πολιτικές Επιστήμες, Νομικά και Δημόσιο Δίκαιο. Μετά τις σπουδές του εγκαταστάθηκε στη Γενεύη της Ελβετίας, όπου εργάστηκε αρχικά ως βοηθός Αντιπροσώπου της Ευρωπαϊκής Οικονομικής Κοινότητας, στη συνέχεια ως βοηθός Κοσμήτορα της Νομικής Σχολής του Πανεπιστημίου της Γενεύης και τέλος ως ανώτερο διοικητικό και νομικό στέλεχος του CERN(Ευρωπαϊκός Οργανισμός Πυρηνικών Ερευνών) μέχρι τον Δεκέμβριο του 2005, οπότε συνταξιοδοτήθηκε. Έχει λάβει έως σήμερα τρεις σημαντικές τιμητικές διακρίσεις: Ιππότης του Εθνικού Τάγματος Αξίας (1996) από τη Γαλλική Δημοκρατία, Πρεσβευτής Ελληνισμού (2008) από την Ελληνική Πολιτεία και Επίτιμος Δημότης (2007) του Δήμου «Νίκος Καζαντζάκης». Είναι ιδρυτής και πρόεδρος της Συντονιστικής Επιτροπής της ΔΕΦΝΚ, ενώ κατέχει επίσης τη θέση του αρχισυντάκτη της ετήσιας επιθεώρησης «LeRegardcretois» και του ενημερωτικού δελτίου «Synthesis», που αποτελούν εκδόσεις της ΔΕΦΝΚ. Είναι μέλος της Διεθνούς Ένωσης Γαλλόφωνου Τύπου και ένας από τους σημαντικούς δωρητές του Μουσείου «Νίκου Καζαντζάκη» στη Μυρτιά της Κρήτης. Έχει δώσει πολλές διαλέξεις και έχει ταξιδέψει με δικά του έξοδα σε ενενήντα έξι χώρες για τη διάδοση του έργου και της σκέψης του Καζαντζάκη σε ολόκληρο τον κόσμο.Το τελευταίο βιβλίο του «Καζαντζάκης - Ζορμπάς: Μια αληθινή φιλία» εκδόθηκε στις Εκδόσεις Καστανιώτη, το 2017. 

Η διάλεξη θα γίνει στα γαλλικά, με μετάφραση στα ρουμανικά.

Η είσοδος είναι ελεύθερη.
