A short but insightful article on the looming crises in museum leadership in the US, which is also a larger world-wide phenomena in this day of global and cultural connectedness.

Of particular note would be the 2 consequences highlighted that are a direct result of this leadership crunch - high turnover of museum directors - playing out a version of leadership "musical chairs" - and high compensation packages as financial lure - and we known where that can lead, if we remember painful lessons from the Getty and the Smithsonian.
