Abstract This paper examines the careers of artists and cultural workers who completed a one-year arts management graduate program. After the program, almost half of the participants were in positions with managerial responsibility, of which the majority combined artistic and administrative responsibility. The aim of the study was to fill a knowledge gap with regard to differences between managers and non-managers among graduated arts management students in terms of self-perceived working conditions and professional identity. The study was based on a survey of graduates (N = 73) from the six-year period 2012-2017. The results show that graduates with managerial responsibility view their working conditions significantly better than those without such responsibility. Managers experience more creative and interesting jobs and score higher on extrinsic conditions such as employment security and income level. They also experience higher career satisfaction and express a stronger leader identity, and notably, they retain an artistic identity to the same degree level as non-managers. Finally, leader identity is positively related to career satisfaction, whereas artistic identity implies a precarious working situation and lower career satisfaction.

从艺术家到经理—艺术管理专业毕业学生的工作条件，职业满意度和职业认同

摘要本文考察了完成了为期一年的艺术管理研究生课程的艺术家和文化工作者的职业。计划结束后，将近一半的参与者担任管理职务，其中大多数人兼具艺术和行政责任。这项研究的目的是填补在艺术管理专业毕业生中管理者与非管理者之间在自我感知的工作条件和职业身份方面的差异的知识空白。该研究基于对2012-2017六年期间毕业生（N = 73）的调查。结果表明，具有管理责任感的毕业生比没有责任感的毕业生看待他们的工作条件要好得多。管理人员将经历更多富有创造力和有趣的工作，并在非常规条件下获得更高的分数，例如就业保障和收入水平。他们还具有更高的职业满意度并表现出更强的领导者身份，尤其是，他们保留了与非经理人相同程度的艺术身份。最后，领导者身份与职业满意度成正相关，而艺术身份则意味着不稳定的工作环境和较低的职业满意度。
