Sydney Living Museums Strategic Planning


Client: Sydney Living Museums

Location: Sydney, NSW

Year: 2016


Putting history on a path to the future

 

Brief


Sydney Living Museums (SLM) is the NSW State Government body responsible for the ongoing care and management of the State’s historic houses and buildings. Originally the Historic Houses Trust, the organisation and its suite of properties are overseen by a Board of Trustees who work alongside the Management team to set the priorities and direction of the organisation. With their strategic plan expired, SLM were seeking outside help to facilitate the leadership team to explore the next iteration of this document.

 

Approach


Having worked on previous strategic projects for SLM - and with firm knowledge of the organisation’s overarching vision and mission - Left Bank Co. was engaged by the leadership team to facilitate a strategic planning day to flesh out the core components of the strategic plan for the next 5 years.

 

Impact


As an external facilitator, performing the role of the outsider was crucial to encouraging the attendees to think about the big picture and challenge themselves, while drawing out the key insights and priorities of the team in order to determine the path forward for the organisation.
