Lead Like the Great Conductors
Itay Talgam, a native of Tel-Aviv, Israel, and disciple of his great teacher Leonard Bernstein, is a world- renowned orchestral conductor turned “conductor of people.” The Maestro Program, Talgam’s leadership philosophy, was founded on the belief that in an orchestra and in the workplace, music has the power to create community and reinforce shared values. Music-making embodies knowledge and innovation, individual effort and collective achievement, and offers a work environment full of opportunities for excellence and self-actualization. Itay Talgam teaches leadership to Fortune 500 companies, non-profits and universities, and lectures at international conferences. He published The Ignorant Maestro in 2015.
