Jazz Improvisation in the HR World. What do a stand-up bass, drums, and a saxophone have in common with the corporate business model? More than you might think at first glance. “Jazz Improvisation in the HR World” will enlighten the audience, through sound and technique, to think of HR strategies in the jazz perspective. Michael Gold, PH.D., creator of Jazz Impact, and his jazz trio offer parallels drawn from both the world of business and the world of jazz. Discover connections that include team building, time management, creativity, listening skills, and working in a diverse environment. Michael spent 20 years as a freelance bassist and teacher of improvisation in New York City and earned his Doctorate in Performance from New York University. Michael has performed with the likes of Lee Konitz, Hank Jones, Warne Marsh, and Al Cohn.
