Professionalising volunteer management in museums and archives : Reflections from NCK

The Nordic Centre of Heritage Learning and Creativity (NCK) has been working with the subject of volunteers and volunteer management for over a decade in close collaboration with other partners, of which many are contributors to this volume. But why does a research and development centre for heritage learning interest itself in volunteer management and leadership? In this essay, we will reflect on the question through a historical overview of some of the ways in which NCK has engaged in the professionalization of the Nordic heritage sector, and through looking ahead. As we have seen that dialogue is a powerful tool for engaging in the heterogeneous subject of volunteer management and leadership in the heritage sector, this essay will focus on some of the intricate questions that are guiding our work on the topic, rather than providing clear-cut answers.
