Speakers: Jane Booth, Alyssa Bonic and Ian Rodwell

In the dynamic and volatile world of organisational life, every leader needs to be nimble on their feet, be audience ready and demonstrate a performer mindset. And for Jane Booth (Head of Guildhall Ignite) and Alyssa Bonic (Business Manager) of the world-leading Guildhall School of Music and Drama (alma mater to Daniel Craig, Lily James and Jodie Whittaker), such arts-based metaphors reveal the fruitful intersection of the worlds of business and creativity. In this episode of the Ideas Foundry podcast, Jane and Alyssa talk about Guildhall Ignite, the School’s training consultancy for executive and professional performance, the importance of agility and ‘listening in the moment’ as well as the lessons orchestral life can teach us about organisational conflict, durable relationships and why the show must always (yes, always) go on.
