Theoretical training

"How to manage your own company" Training

This training will be led by Jennifer Gohier, artist and choreographer, who has been running her company Corps In Situ since 2014.

This one-day training is intended for choreographers and artists leading choreographic projects who are at the beginning of their artistic journey and wish to acquire the knowledge needed to create their own company.

Throughout the day, participants will explore several complementary topics essential to the creation and management of their own structure, developing a broad understanding of the artistic, administrative, human, financial, and political challenges involved.

During this training day, we will focus on the concept of a company and address two main themes:

Creating a company: from an artistic project to legal structuring

  • Developing artistic projects in the medium and long term

  • The challenges of being structured as a non-profit association (asbl) and its implications

  • Setting up an asbl

Managing a company

  • Bringing together and managing a team around your artistic projects

  • The different roles within a company

  • The different types of contracts related to the performing arts and the day-to-day life of a company

  • How to formalize collaborations with artistic, administrative, and technical partners

We will also use brainstorming exercises and mind maps so that each participant can adapt the training to their own personal project.
