leadership with the disciplines of orchestra conducting

Method 1 (Carlos Kleiber)

The joy of management is to enable people's stories to be heard at the same time harmoniously. It's like a rollercoaster; you create a driving force for people to ride on. Compliment and appreciate what your people do. This is control in a different manner; to let people be happy and proud of their work. Nevertheless, when there is a mistake, you have to practise authority.  Control is a PROCESS.

Method 2 (Riccardo Muti)

  1. Tell people what to do.
  2. Tell people what will happens if the thing that you want does not happen.

This is effective only to a certain extent as it does not have room for your people to exercise their skills and creativity and hinders their individual development.

Method 3 (Richard Strauss)

Make people realise they're doing for a cause; not for the leader.

Method 4 (Herbert von Karajan)

Look at conductor, then look at one another. The department leader leads their people.

"A clear instruction prevents people from being sensitive and working together."

Create a state of urgency. -> A clear instruction is not given but at the same time, you are to deliver as needed.

If successful, this will add up to doing by not doing. (Confucius)
