On
the main stage
Amy Kweskin
Finding her creative vision through photography Amy identified the need for developing the business
of arts. She pursued a Masters in Arts Administration and applied her management expertise to
supporting arts and business partnerships across the United States. Recognised for her innovation
she was brought into the academic team of the University of Houston Downtown as a professor
of Arts Administration.
Reaching mid-career Amy realised that she was not alone in her need to strike a life-work balance. As a Research Fellow with Americans for the Arts she conducted a national study identifying solutions for retaining and developing mid-career professionals.
Amy relocated to the United Kingdom in 2006 and joined Legal Action Group as Business Development
Manager. Simultaneously she trained as a leadership coach. In 2008 she returned to the United
States and established Leading-Together, a Washington, DC based consulting practice that develops
partnerships across cultures
