Join us for a 3-day adventure of learning, growing, and professional friendships in beautiful Portland, Maine. Karen Pambianchi of Swift Water Collaborative will be in attendance to speak on the Impact of Perfectionism.

Perfectionism is an expert at disguise, making it more elusive to overcome. How do we move past perfectionism and into productivity? We must understand our own perfectionist tendencies and as leaders learn to identify perfectionism tendencies in our team. In this interactive session, we’ll explore all these questions and strategies you can use to increase productivity and leverage the positive impacts of perfectionism for yourself and your team.

Take advantage of the country’s largest regional gathering of museum professionals, with 100+ professional development sessions, lively discussions, and tons of networking opportunities that challenge your intellect and boost your museum passion.

Whether you’re new to museums or a seasoned pro, the NEMA Conference is the place to be.

This year’s theme is “Engage! Moving form Inspiration to Action.” The NEMA Conference has always been a place of idea exchange, like the wider museum field. The best, most useful conversations we have as museum professionals can directly impact our daily work, and these are the kinds of discussions we want to focus on for this year’s conference. Ideas, theories, and explorations are important, but these sometimes stultify into statements and plans which mean nothing if not carried out.
