In this episode of the Fearless Artist podcast, host Michelle Lynne engages in an insightful conversation with Professor Karl Moore, an esteemed faculty member at McGill University with a prolific career in teaching, research, and leadership. Karl, who has taught at prestigious institutions such as Oxford, Stanford, and Harvard, shares his wealth of knowledge on leadership, management, and the intersection between business and the arts.
Michelle highlights the often-overlooked skills that musicians need beyond their musical abilities, noting that Karl's extensive experience and research can provide valuable lessons for musicians navigating their careers. Karl discusses his hands-on teaching approach, including the Hot Cities of the World Tour, which exposes students to global economic trends and real-world leadership challenges.
Karl emphasizes the importance of presence and storytelling in both business and music. He recounts his experiences interviewing renowned musicians like the Manhattan Transfer and insights gained from those conversations about leadership, teamwork, and creativity. He also shares practical advice on networking, emphasizing the value of meaningful conversations and the importance of self-promotion without feeling narcissistic.
Addressing the challenges introverted musicians face, Karl advises leveraging one's strengths and taking "introvert breaks" to recharge. He encourages musicians to develop people skills, focus on human connections, and find their unique purpose in music. By doing so, they can enhance their presence both on and off stage, ultimately leading to more successful and fulfilling careers.
