Non-Formal Education Event Governance Strategies

Malgorzata Pańkowska

Abstract


Purpose – The present paper aims to characterize the main differences and similarities among different strategies of event governance. Beyond that, there is a study analysis on non-formal education event governance.

Design/Methodology/Approach – The author’s approach is based on the literature review and research works survey, concerning the governance strategies. The last part of the paper covers the Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) diagram and the Responsible-Accountable-Consulted-Informed (RACI) model for visualization of the basic processes, decisions and stakeholders’ roles in a non-formal education event.

Findings – Based on the analysis, it was found that the most appropriate strategy for the non-formal education event is the strategy, which strongly emphasizes the role of event facilitator. That role is confronted with the roles of other event stakeholders. In the paper, the characteristics of a project are confronted with the features of event.

Practical implications – The outcomes of the study can teach event managers how to share leadership and organize event activities.

Original value – The original value of the paper is that governance strategies are discussed as well as an event organizing approach is presented.

<p.Article type – Research and literature general review.
