I just loved this. I connected with it too - one of my daughters is a jazz musician and I know how on point this is - just hope it is right! Personally have many worries but this was great for me.
Love this series but this one in particular resonated. Organizational muscle memory of fixed and rigid hierarchies and managers more concerned with org building than work building are an anchor around the neck of talent in the modern work environment.
Love this analogy. There is a great book written years back by John Kao entitled Jamming. https://a.co/d/cp28eK2 that sets the tone for using jazz techniques in the art and discipline of business.
Great read Rishad. As a jazz guitarist myself, I would simply add to remember Duke Ellington's famous advice, "it don't mean a thing if it 'aint got that swing!"
It is indeed the age of Jazz! Those who can improvise given the Global situation, markets, competition are the winners! It is about nimbleness and creativity with some method that spawn in these organisations.
Hi Rishad! Love the comparison classic vs. jazz. One more aspect: mistakes. In classic a wrong tone is a no. In jazz it’s a yes. The actors tend to pick it up and play with it. The mistake delivers the opportunity for something fresh, new. Jazzers love it, classics can’t deal with it. Now to business …
