Creativity and Business Breakfast ADAPTIVE LEADERSHIP: The concert hall and the boardroom: are they worlds apart?

As Executive Director of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Rory Jeffes thinks not. He knows musicians and is mindful of how building individual confidence and a collaborative workplace contribute equally to success on both the concert stage and the boardroom. At breakfast he will share the skills behind the management of high-performance artists: skills that foster both virtuosic individualism and a unity of purpose across a diversity of ages, training, instrumental disciplines—and egos.

RORY JEFFES has been in the position of Managing Director of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra since 2008. His background in business and not-for-profit sectors is complemented by his academic background in music and a deep interest in the arts and culture.
