1 FROM CEO TO MAESTRO February 19 th - 23 rd, 2018 Madrid, Spain A Creative Approach to Leadership: Learning from the Maestros

2 An orchestra conductor faces the ultimate leadership challenge: to create perfect harmony without saying a word. Itay Talgam Overview Conductors are the only members of the orchestra not producing any sound, and yet, they must create order out of chaos, while attaining high degrees of artistic quality from a diverse group of musicians. This means working with a group of highly skilled professionals, who need to coordinate and adapt themselves to each other to perform as a unit. Conductors are also called Maestros, which means teacher. They need to be visionary and inspirational leaders, as well as teachers and coaches who develop their teams to achieve perfection. Business leaders face similar challenges. They need to create a high degree of harmony in their 2 businesses, allowing a diversity of talents to act in synchrony to achieve their vision. Elements such as motivation, technical knowledge, passion, strategic planning, curiosity, introspection, and understanding of individuals are needed to succeed as the leader of a business or an orchestra. This leadership development program is designed to improve the leadership skills of senior managers through the teachings and experiences of renowned orchestra conductors.

7 FROM CEO TO MAESTRO A Creative Approach to Leadership: Learning from the Maestros AIDA In Aida, the grandiose and the intimate converge as in few other operas: the bloody confrontation between Ethiopians and Egyptians is juxtaposed by the love of Ramadés, Captain of the Egyptian Guard, for Aida, a slave of the Ethiopians. Their love is more powerful than the hatred between the two peoples, their social differences and incompatible perspectives. This love was as solid as the wall which blocked its consummation. Verdi chose this story after rejecting several alternatives with comical or thematic plots to which he could have composed a grand opera. He became hugely involved with the writing of the libretto by Antonio Ghislanzoni, he had collaborated in the revision of La forza del destino. The success of the premiere in the opera house of Cairo, having opened two years previously, was sensational. As part of the Bicentennial celebrations, the Teatro Real pays tribute to its past by recouping part of the scenery of the 1998 production from its repository. Acclaimed at that time, the technical and material complexities have made it impossible to revive until now. Aida returns to the Teatro Real. 7 TEATRO REAL Located in the historic center of Madrid, Teatro Real is regarded as one of the most important cultural institutions in Spain, the theater reopened on 11 October 1997 and has become an internationally acclaimed opera house which showcases leading voices and state-of-the art productions. The Teatro Real is Spain s leading opera house. It is considered to be one of the three most important cultural institutions of the country together with the Museo Nacional del Prado and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía. The Teatro Real Foundation is chaired by the King and Queen of Spain. It relies on two public administrations that took part in its creation: the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport, and the Comunidad de Madrid (Regional Government of Madrid). The Foundation is governed by a Board of 31 trustees. The Board of Trustees elects the President of the Board and the Executive Commission as proposed by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport. The Foundation is a public entity and there is an important role played by civil society in its governance and sponsorship. The objective of the Teatro Real is to create a venue for the most talented singers, conductors and stage directors from around the world. Its artistic mission is expressed in programming which seeks excellence by combining classical and contemporary lyrical repertory to appeal to audiences of all ages and interests. Introducing young people and children to opera is of particular concern. All this, along with the Principal Chorus and Orchestra of the Teatro Real, the most up to date technological expertise and the large number of in house productions on stages around the world has firmly positioned the Teatro Real in Spain and abroad.
