An innovative tool for music educators, this book will prepare music students for a lifelong path to success in whatever field they choose. It highlights valuable skills developed in ensemble and music classes and provides a pathway to achieving success in any career - both in and outside of music. Each of the book's 15 eight-minute lesson plans has the same simple format and focuses on a specific transferable skill, such as problem solving, networking, and self-management. For even greater impact, access to videos of music and business professionals discussing the lesson topics is included. A great resource as well for open house or advocacy presentations demonstrating the importance and necessity of an arts education for students.
