“Miles Davis is rightfully acclaimed as an icon of jazz but he didn’t make music alone. Throughout his career as a band leader, Miles brought together some of the most talented musicians in jazz to work with him in his musical exploration. John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Bill Evans and many others, known as among the giants of jazz, graduated from ‘Miles University’. This seminar draws on what Miles learned and transfers it to your workplace so you can manage and lead your high performers with confidence and authenticity.”
