Leadership in the workplace, says Max DePree, is like playing jazz; it's more an art than a science. Today's successful managers are attuned to the needs and ideas of their followers and even step aside at times to be followers themselves. As a result, they spark vitality and productivity from their work force. They culivate communication and spontaneity, diversity and creativity, and the unique potential of every person in the organization to contribute to the success of the team. In Leadership Jazz you'll learn -How to hold people accountable but still give them space to make mistakes. - How to balance the needs of your employees with those of the company. - How to inspire change and innovation and maintain a sense of stability. - How to practice the art of delegation. - How to work constructively with creative people. - How to assess candidates for senior positions. - And much more!

Business leaders always surprise us. We think we know someone based off the teams they lead, the company they run, the sales they make. But the best stories come from the years it took to build those teams and that company. That's where the wisdom sings. Scott Lawrence is the CEO of Lawrence & Schiller, a progressive advertising agency in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, but he's a bass player, the leader of the band, and a former band director, too-Mr. L, as the kids referred to him-and he learned a lot about leadership in those years. He runs a successful business today, but this book shares with fellow ad agencies the great insight that came from the many band competitions, the marches along Main Street, the band room, and the kids. As it turns out, you can learn a lot about leadership when you simply listen to the music, and Mr. L plays us a good song.
