[书籍] The Ignorant Maestro: How Great Leaders Inspire Unpredictable Brilliance
作者: Itay Talgam
出版社: Penguin Books Ltd
简介: In The Ignorant Maestro, Symphony Orchestra conductor Itay Talgam reveals the art of successful leadership by looking at the world's greatest conductors. 'I learned more about leadership in that half hour than in my entire career' Al Gore, on a lecture by Itay Talgam. Every night, the conductor faces the ultimate leadership challenge: command a complex organisation in real time, before an audience, without stopping or starting again. And do it without saying a word. In The Ignorant Maestro, Itay Talgam brings that art to the everyday. Far from being specifically geared toward classical aficionados, The Ignorant Maestro is for anyone who has ever been frustrated by leadership and communication tasks; anyone who is searching for harmony in companies, organisations, even families. Talgam observes the leadership styles of six the greatest maestros to reveal the surprising key of true leadership - a letting go, a kind of ignorance. Looking at Muti, Toscanini, Strauss, Karajan, Kleiber, and Bernstein, he outlines their different styles and the different approaches we can all adopt: Commander, Father Figure, Bureaucrat, Guru, Dancer, and Meaning Maker. Filled with engaging stories from Talgam's career as conductor, consultant, speaker and teacher, The Ignorant Maestro is an unconventional and provocative approach to leadership. Talgam's mission is to help everyday people develop the conductor's sense of leadership, and he ultimately challenges readers to answer the question: What kind of leader are you, and more importantly what kind of leader do you want to be? Itay Talgam has conducted orchestras across Europe and the United States, starting with Leonard Bernstein and the Orchestre de Paris in 1987, and has conducted every major Israeli orchestra, including the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. A consultant, speaker and teacher, his clients range from bankers to the army, and he has lectured across the world including at Google's Zeitgeist (London and California), TED Global (Oxford), DLD (Munich and Moscow), the World Economic Forum in Davos, and many more. He also founded the Maestro Program, to help everyday people develop a musician's collaboration and a conductor's leadership.
