The 21st century musician expects increased professional challenges, particularly when the ideals of tradition, technology, and relevance are in conflict. In this current term, SEADOM will work with its members to identify the essential leadership skills our members will need to provide to our students in order for them to effectively advocate on behalf of their distinctive music culture and practices. These identified skill sets could be institutionalised, by way of embedding into our curricula (and beyond), and help contribute to other essential music management areas including communications and public policy.
