Dr Orit Wolf - The Pianist Who Plays to Disrupt

Saison 2 · Épisode 9

vendredi 16 février 2024 • Durée 43:07

Dr Orit Wolf is inimitable. As an international concert pianist, she unconventionally blends her passion for music with the world of business. For many years she has disrupted traditional thinking and practices with her unique approach to creativity and innovation.

Orit isn't afraid to push her own limits. By the age of 23 she had already acquired three degrees, has gone on to win numerous international awards, and her TED talk "Play the Keynote of your Life" saw her bring music, leadership and innovation into action. And if she wasn't busy enough, Orit is now proud author of her poetry book Love in B minor and is currently authoring the book “The Language of the Creative Mind”.

In this episode of Are you Sitting Uncomfortably? host Gemma Greaves and Orit explore her discomfort of mistakes on stage, being judged both professionally and personally, and the uncomfortable nature of disruption.

Are You Sitting Uncomfortably? is a Fresh Air original production, in partnership with Nurture.

In the eighth episode of Are You Sitting Uncomfortably? Host Gemma Greaves and Mark explore the uncomfortable truths about running a restaurant, going into administration right before a global pandemic and what it felt like to buy back his own name.
