Keeping Score - Understanding Organizational Performance


Discover Valmé’s own theories for measuring organizational effectiveness beyond financial metrics. This edition discusses the Capital Value Theory, which focuses on individual value types; the Dynamic Capability Theory, which highlights long-term resource utilization; the Dynamic System Resilience Theory, which emphasizes adaptability in the face of change; and the Multivariate Dynamic System Theory, which was explored in October’s edition. The book concludes by advocating a comprehensive approach to analyzing organizations for strategic planning and long-lasting success.


Keeping Score - Multivariate Fields


Explore the transformative application of dynamical systems theory in arts and culture management through this groundbreaking work. Delve into how 'multivariate fields' and the interplay of 'manifest and latent attractors' influence organizational performance and direction. Learn how understanding these concepts, along with organizational inertia, is essential for navigating and succeeding in the dynamic landscape of arts and culture administration.


Keeping Score - Decoding Decline


In the complex realm of performing arts, "Decoding Decline and Recovery" highlights challenges beyond fiscal concerns, emphasizing the need for multidimensional strategies over linear models. Rooted in established theories, the research introduces a unified performance index built on three pillars: Capital Value, Dynamic Capability, and System Resilience, advocating for a deeper understanding of organizational decline and a pathway to resilience and sustainable growth.


Keeping Score - Project Summary

Discover the untapped possibilities at the intersection of arts, culture, and business administration with "Keeping Score: Performance Measurement in Arts Organizations." Supported by two years of comprehensive study and expert mentorship at Columbia University, this project will delve into a complex yet vital question: what defines a "healthy" arts organization?

Moving beyond traditional financial and impact metrics, my research explores innovative, multidimensional tools for assessing the resilience and sustainability of arts institutions in an ever-changing global landscape.

Stay tuned in the coming months as I share insights aimed at enriching the quality of discourse and decision-making in the arts and culture sector.
