Through Questioning and Doing—Founder's Inquiry

What is one's role and contribution?

What is necessary to be done for everyone to achieve success?

Who are the people (the stakeholders) and how does one lead?

What impact will one's actions have on others?

Is the vision of the New York Center of Art transformative? Sustainable? How will others be an active part of it?

Everything the Founder needs, the Founder has.

Everyone with whom the Founder needs to align is here.

Who specifically will provide support without fear that they will derail or harm this project? 

Whose lives will be improved by NYCA Mission? Artists? Community? Other institutions? Employees? 

Who, if anyone, won’t be happy?

What kind of a culture will NYCA create?

What will people say about working with the Center?

What do we want people to say about NYCA and about what everyone involved has accomplished?

How are people participating and contributing? 

Where in the plan, and in the organization, are they involved?

Doing it is not a debate—the question is how.
