I really appreciate that: to walk into an environment where everyone is serious and dedicated to creating the best performance possible and challenging themselves to figure out the most interesting way to approach the work.

The highest levels of performance come to people who are centered, intuitive, creative, and reflective - people who know to see a problem as an opportunity.

The more work I do, the more important it is to work with people I like - who are very talented.

Throughout the course of my life, I've been blessed to work with extremely talented people.

The bottom line is, when people are crystal clear about the most important priorities of the organization and team they work with and prioritized their work around those top priorities, not only are they many times more productive, they discover they have the time they need to have a whole life.

The only people I've ever met who are really successful in their fields, regardless of what field that is, are people who are deeply passionate about the work they do every day and are motivated by a sense of purpose.

The rehearsal process is the most important thing to me, so working with colleagues who are effusive, thoughtful, young and vivacious is really inspiring as a musician.

There are lots of jobs in search of talent. And there's lots of talent in search of meaningful work.

I feel that my job is to create an atmosphere where creative people can do their best work.

I view my role more as trying to set up an environment where the personalities, creativity and individuality of all the different employees come out and can shine.
