Daily Music Meditations: Musical musings on excellence for busy people - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Music is the language of the emotions. Leadership is about handling the emotional life of an enterprise and its people as much as it is about looking after the balance sheet. The highest performing leaders in the world understand that if you look after the people, the numbers look after themselves. More the 'school of hard rocks; than the Harvard Business School, yet every idea in Daily Music Meditations is underpinned by sound thinking.

In Daily Music Meditations, we’ve used poetic licence and sometimes, creative extrapolation and three degrees of mental playfulness to extract lessons from the titles, lyrics and insights from rock and pop songs and singers for leaders and people who want to learn at the speed of sound. People tell us that our lessons are faster, longer lasting and both superficial and deep all in the same moment, when compared with a standard leadership book or development programme.

• What can you learn about innovation from Prince?
• What can Roberta Flack teach you about leadership?
• Are there hidden meanings in David Bowie's songs about business entrepreneurship?

• What can Lady Gaga teach you about marketing?
• What can you learn about business leadership from AC DC?
• Does Brian Eno provide endless learnings about creativity in life?

And so on ...
