Understanding collaboration through the lens of Itay Talgam and a collection of the worlds foremost conductors.
- The best event I attended last year was the Picnic Conference 08′ in Amsterdam. Filled with interesting people and invaluable insights
. Now they finally put the presentations from the main hall up on Vimeo, and I recommend most of them :o) – Thanks to Putting People First for “finding them”.
I’ve picked out Itay Talgam’s presentation on Conducting Creativity as my favorite, not necessarily because it contains a lot of relevant technical stuff or hands out project experiences

The talk creates a beautiful and valuable perspective, touching on a range of different features related to collaboration and creativity. And… it was the only presentation I can remember that got an almost never ending standing ovation!
Here is a selection of three quotes by Itam, or him quoting others, all found in the presentation:
- “It’s not only about personal style, this is a part of it, and I think an interesting part. but it’s about creating a certain set of culture that enables certain modes of collaboration between people”
“Without order nothing can exist, without chaos nothing can grow”
“The worst damage I can do to my organization is to give them a very clear indication. Why? Because that creates a one on one relations between me and the players. Which makes the ignore the ensemble and work directly with me”
