The latest BCODN survey identified team processing and functioning as the top priority for programs in this coming year.  Presented by Brian Fraser of Jazzthink, this session will engage participants in discovering what qualities of great teamwork can be seen in a jazz performance, how the wisdom in the room stacks up against the best of the research and reflection in the field, and what practical steps can be taken in the workplace to nurture high-functioning teams.

Participants will leave with a revived awareness of and commitment to the power of initiating conversations that foster productive communities of practice in whatever area they may be working.  It’s as simple, and complex, as crafting a great jazz performance.

Target audience
