Publication

CATALYST is a publication of the graduate programs in creative enterprise leadership in Arts and Cultural Management (ACM) and Design Management (DM) at Pratt Institute, School of Art. It is presented by its program participants, alumni and faculty who search the world for catalysts that inspire and activate 21st century creative leaders to lead as if life matters.

Leading Creative Enterprise | Leading as if Life Matters. Each issue of the publication is based on a particular theme. We provide examples of a future that has arrived. And evidence the power of using the arts and design to address complex cultural challenges and to innovate for advantage. We demonstrate that by connecting creativity with strategy and generativity, today’s leaders can design experiences and economic exchanges that can re-define who we are and who we might become.
