It is a track record that of the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, the New York ensemble star of international theater tour. To distinguish his path from others, there is a peculiarity: the absence of a Conductor, the empty podium.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r5G-g911awE?list=PLjha8TKMDzE-lGgePtFxXolo1zBT14z1_\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Case Study<\/strong><br \/>\nSince its founding in 1972, Orpheus has been widely recognized by leaders in the business, academic, and creative fields for its unique, conductorless process of music-making (<a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.it\/scholar?hl=it&amp;q=orpheus+chamber+orchestra&amp;btnG=&amp;lr=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here some results from Google Scholar<\/a>). By harnessing their collective input, expertise, and vision, Orpheus musicians have uncovered rich new insights in performance, consistently achieving the highest international standards of excellence.<\/p>\n<p>The orchestra&#8217;s commitment to teamwork, personal leadership, and effective communication has allowed it to reach levels of productivity and job satisfaction virtually unheard of in the field of orchestral management. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orpheusinstituut.be\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Orpheus Institute<\/a> is the orchestra&#8217;s signature training program for the principles and techniques of the Orpheus Process. Orpheus&#8217; multi-leader management style encourages collaboration and teamwork, resulting in shared responsibility and an increased commitment towards positive outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Uncertainty Management<br \/>\n<\/strong>&#8220;Orpheus does many things differently from a\u00a0normal\u00a0orchestra. The fact that we don&#8217;t have a conductor is actually the smallest part. But there&#8217;s something I want to pick up from Dean Bergami opening remarks which is that uncertainty is the new normality. Uncertainty is for sure the new normality in the business of the art today.&#8221;\u00a0<strong>Krishna Thiagarajan<\/strong>\u00a0(Executive Director, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra) starts the MBA Lecture talking about topics and themes that touch some raw nerves of Cultural Management. &#8220;When we think about Art Organization in America we use\u00a0a horrible term: non-profit organization. Let me first sure you it is not true, Art Organizations are businesses. In the United States,\u00a0Orpheus is a 4 billion dollar business for year.&#8221;\u00a0Contribute to organizational well as a tool to improve productivity is fundamental here , not only in terms of artistic research and formal , but the effectiveness of the orchestra &#8211; enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Changing\u00a0<strong>Continuously\u00a0<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\nIt is a question of <strong>Andrea Lipparini<\/strong> (Professor of Strategy, University of Bologna and Executive MBA Director) to give the floor to Laura Frautschi (Musician &amp; Art Director, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra).\u00a0&#8220;One of the most interesting thing about our structure\u00a0is the flexibility. At the same time there is democracy where everybody is equal but of course with\u00a0every performance there is gonna be a hierarchy. There are different\u00a0seatings, people leading sits\u00a0in the front chair. I&#8217;m a violinist, so when I am the first violin, I have to go in front of my colleagues and lead. Sharing leadership means changing continuously.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Be Inspired!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When music teaches companies how to make group decisions.\u00a0Krishna Thiagarajan,\u00a0Executive Director and\u00a0Laura Frautschi,\u00a0Musician &amp; Art Director, dell&#8217;Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, \u00a0told\u00a0about\u00a0their model of shared leadership,\u00a0a 4 billion dollar business for year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[],"rubrica":[],"class_list":["post-17252","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Orpheus Chamber Orchestra: when music teaches companies | BBS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Two members of the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra gave a lecture at Bologna Business School about their model of shared leadership.
