Applying Agile Project Management to Art Museums: A Proposal for Implementing a Generalist Scrum Master

<p>This capstone project examines organizational change, along with its challenges, through case studies in museums and businesses in the private sector, subsequently providing a possible solution for museums to adapt to the current global market economy through the use of Agile Project Management (Agile). I cite recent case studies of art museums implementing Agile for digital product development. This project proposal aims to introduce Agile outside of digital departments, including Exhibitions and Education, with the goal of developing better visitor-centered offerings from museums. This may be achieved through the proposal of a job description for a new museum position of Generalist Scrum Master, along with a three-year strategy of implementing Agile Project Management across various museum departments, including digital, exhibitions, and education.</p>
