Episode Synopsis "Navigating a Merger and a Pandemic at Revolutionary Spaces"
What happens when two cultural nonprofits with a shared history (and shared audiences, donors, and larger communities) decide to join forces? And, what does this transition look like in the context of an ongoing pandemic? In this episode, we talk with Nat Sheidley, President and CEO at Revolutionary Spaces in Boston, Massachusetts, about how he led his team through a merger of the city's Old State House and Old South Meeting House. From developing board task forces to really understanding where a new mission and vision could take the organizations once they came together under one umbrella, Nat and his team are delivering innovative approaches to history and have committed to exploring what "We the people" can really mean.
