Abstract: In Workplace jazz, the author hopes to raise a battle cry for individual and corporate responsibility in building cultures that are both healthier and more productive for those working in them. Workplace jazz teaches the strategies and steps professionals need to connect and transform their agile project teams and execute for optimum results. According to McKinsey, "Research shows that hurtful workplace behavior can depress performance, increase employee turnover, and even mar customer relationships. And that workplace relationships may be fraying as fewer employees work in the office and feel more isolated and less respected." Workplace jazz offers a step-by-step process enhanced with stories, research, mini case studies, metaphors, and a strategic blueprint for developing connected and transformational project teams based on the author's experiences as a professional musician and certified business consultant. The author will also include stories from a highly skilled set of guest contributors who are both musicians and some well-known business authors and consultants
