Bridging Art and Business: Arvind Manocha’s Journey from McKinsey to Wolf Trap​

Visionary arts leader Arvind Manocha, President & CEO of the Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts—home to Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts—joins Alison to explore what it really takes to run one of America’s most beloved venues. Arvind traces a winding path from McKinsey & Company to the LA Philharmonic (including the Hollywood Bowl and Walt Disney Concert Hall), and digs into metrics that honor both the ephemeral magic of a single performance and the perpetuity of long-term capital projects. We get real about philanthropy’s role, artist hospitality (why backstage matters), and why programming a national park must reflect the nation. Also in the mix: mentorship, wellness, and building a career in the arts without losing your joy. Plus shout-outs to colleagues at ASU Gammage and beyond.Find Out More Here:Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing ArtsWolf Trap Professional Development WorkshopsAssociation of Performing Arts Professionals (APAP) Want to know more about the Impact Roadmap: The Art of Describing Your Impact?
