Dear Gary:
Thank you
for bringing the metaphor of music to our business culture at Eastman
Kodak’s Health Imaging Division. Here is what worked well for my business:
1. You
captured the building energy of my group which had been developing in
our week-long meeting and then transformed it into a team energy packed
with accomplishment and feel-good work.
2. All
380 people were engaged thoroughly—surprising themselves with their
attachment to the team which your music unfolded.
3. The
time you spent with my Human Resource Director gave you instant credibility
as you effortlessly, humorously related the musical challenge to every
important business and culture change that dominated my meeting agenda.
Everyone could feel that you seemed to understand our business issues
and human challenges in our efforts to reshape our business.
4. The
challenge of engaging 380 people immersed in high-tech at the end of
a long day is daunting. The talent of your ensemble and the power of
the music immediately connected.
5. The
theme of my meeting was "It Takes a Community to Grow a Business."
Many of my people never met each other except by phone. Many of my people
had historical impressions of more important or less important work.
Your music lesson helped illustrate the power of energy, fun, focus,
teamwork, and commitment required for personal and business success.
Thanks for
helping my business meeting; you were a fun, but integral part of our
success. Not a diversion but an energetic partner.
Sincerely,

Wayne D. Langlois
General Manager, U.S. & Canada
Vice President, Health Imaging
