Jazz, a technology for collaborative innovation.

Jazz is an art form unique to the modern world. Jazz isn’t about producing an object of art like a painting or a sculpture. Jazz is actually a social process that results in the constant creation of new ideas and innovative musical interaction.

The members of the high performance team called the jazz ensemble possess and practice a set of shared behaviors that we call the Five Dynamics of Jazz. These five dynamics captured in the acronym APRIL are:

• Autonomy
• Passion
• Risk
• Innovation
• Listening

Through hands-on interaction and the compelling performance of a World Class Jazz Ensemble, Jazz Impact demonstrates:

• What skills are needed for improvisation
• How jazz musicians mitigate risk
• Why improvisation is critical
• How these principles relate to the interactive dynamics of your business.
