Don’t just survive.
thrive.
Coaching in the arts and culture field was largely inaccessible for a long time. Not only was there a lack of coaches with real expertise in the sector, but the cost of working with them was just too high for many members of our community. NAS has experienced firsthand the value of coaching for arts and culture organizations, believes deeply in its transformative power, and decided to create a coaching offering designed to meet the needs of our field.
To do this, NAS rigorously trained the first ever cohort of coaches that are arts and culture leaders themselves, and have the lived experience needed to support clients working to redefine the structures, practices, and policies of the status quo. Our coaches are currently working with clients at price points below traditional market rates, and we’re actively working with funders to help subsidize costs to create a pay-what-you-can model moving forward.
We believe that everyone doing the work of arts and culture is worthy of coaching, and hope to make it as accessible as possible for all.

What is Coaching?
Coaching is a process that empowers individuals to maximize their personal and professional potential. A coach’s job is to listen, ask powerful questions, and help clients find their own unique answers. They work with leaders to articulate and achieve meaningful goals, overcome obstacles, and create change.
NAS believes all arts and culture leaders are worthy of coaching. And that means you.
We say this because we know many people in the arts and culture field don’t feel that they are. Some think coaching is only for corporate types and top executives, but we don’t see it that way. We’re offering coaching for all the people that make arts and culture possible, from young people just starting out, to veterans looking for new ideas, perspectives, and tools. Whatever your role. Whatever your identity or lived experience. Wherever you live. You deserve this and we want to make it work for you.
