Jazz

Jazz at the Preservation Hall

Jazz is never the same song twice, never perfect, always evolving. Jazz is equal parts planning and improv. A jazz man may look like he’s making it up as he goes, but is often the most prepared guy in the room. A good jazz man is taking cues from the group he’s playing with and the audience and changing the song in response to their feedback. Jazz is best performed in intimate settings where the whole room is a participant. Jazz changes everyone who hears it.

Now go back and read that paragraph again but change the word Jazz to Sales. Do you dig?

    Nice!

    Now go back and change every word “jazz” to “developer”

    Well, “developer” doesn’t work so well grammatically. Try “software development.”
