Managing Ideas


One may not think of management when it comes to the art of music, but it is a necessary evil. Being an owner of a recording studio, I face many unwanted tasks that require attention I’d rather put forth elsewhere.  Working with so many creative personalities and archetypes, I feel that my energy drained a lot quicker than most other people in management positions.  I can say this because I have worked in management in both government jobs and the food service industry.  The main difference I’d have to say is fluidity, and I don’t mean scheduling.  Your personality must be vibrant and flexible.
