I'm reposting my conversation with Steve.
The original show notes didn't publish only my bulleted notes about what I wanted to say.
I had some bad weather in my area and the disruption in internet and power threw me for a loop.
Enjoy a picture of the tree that fell in my driveway.
My guest today is Steve Cook.
Steve is CEO of TCG Entertainment.
We talk about the 15th anniversary of Cirque Musica.
I was excited to talk with Steve because he has a background that has touched the symphony, amusements, tour productions, and a lot more.
Steve's experience with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and Disney on Ice are prime examples of bringing ideas from outside of your typical industry playbook to use in your situation.
You bring a solution from another world to bear on your business.
In this case, Steve used lessons from his time in amusements to create thinking that elevated the DSO's business.
We discuss trends in the business.
Steve talks about the pricing issues.
I bring up dealing with brokers.
And, a lot more.
On Wednesday, October 2nd, I'm hosting a "Strategy 101" webinar. The ideas here are part of a push I have to create a brand new executive education class in a strategy called "Markets and Competition: Strategy in Modern Times".
So, I want to share some of the thinking and find out what works and what doesn't work for you.
