Institute of Directors - visual representation of a training session

Job ID: 32892771

Budget: $250 – $750 NZD

The IoD is looking for an artist to attend an advanced directors’ training course to generate, during a training session, a visual representation of the ideas and concepts identified by attendees. The visual will be digitally provided to attendees of each course, and could be used by IoD for promotional proposes.

The first session of the course entitled “Director as leader”, requires attendees to thinking about how to lead as directors in a complex and ever changing world and to explore the skills, attributes, behaviours and competences required of a future focused director. We require the identified characteristics of the future director to be included within the visual representation.

As this is a new course, at this initial stage, we are looking to contract an artist for the first two offerings in 2022 (9 May and 27 June). After the second offering a formal review of the course, its components and their value to attendees will be undertaken. If the visual representation of the session is deemed to be of value to attendees, then the artist will be contracted for the remaining four course in 2022 (8 August, 12 September, 10 October, and 23 November).

The course is being held at the Wharewaka on the Wellington waterfront, and the artist will be required to be present from 9.30am – 10.30am.

While we are looking for an artistic style with a modern twist, we appreciate that need to create the visual within the time available while ensuring the visual is unique for each offering, there will be limitations on the artistic styles that can be utilised. The artist is responsible for supplying all materials and removing the artwork at the end of the session. Attendees will be provided with an electronic copy of the visual representation, so artists must consider that practically of taking a photo of their art and the resulting image quality.

An alternative approach, that the IoD would consider, is for the visual representation to be created using a digital medium, with the final product, and possibility the generation process, being displayed to attendees on the room’s overhead display screens.

When entering their expression of interest to IoD to provide these services, we would require potential artists to provide examples of their artistic style(s) and mediums that would be utilised.
