Managerial Roles and Entrepreneurship in Nonprofit

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine how arts administrators in Vir¬ginia manage under conditions of retrenchment and fiscal constraint. The data analysis separated managers into four role groups according to their per¬ceived degree of creativity and documented access to organizational resources. Managerial role types were compared with management behaviors to discern significant differences. The data suggest that arts agencies must select man¬agers with a combination of entrepreneurial and administrative skills.
