Dr. Michael Brenner: "Notes" For Elevating Leadership and Transforming Workplace Dynamics

Harmony isn't just for musicians—it's the secret ingredient for exceptional workplace teams. Dr. Michael Brenner, founder of Right Chord Leadership, visits the Good Neighbor Podcast Studio for an interview with host Bob Blaisse, to reveal how musical principles can transform organizational dynamics in profound ways.

With 40 years as a professional musician and 25 years in leadership development, Dr. Brenner occupies a unique position at the intersection of these worlds. His insight? The same principles that create beautiful music—harmony, rhythm, coordination—also create thriving workplaces. Just as he can play notes on a piano that sound pleasing together, he explains in this episode, how workplace and organization teams can work together in ways that produce either harmony or dissonance.

What sets Dr. Brenner's approach apart is how he moves beyond technical competence—what he calls "table stakes"—to focus on the human dynamics that truly differentiate high-performing organizations. Through engaging, music-infused training sessions, participants experience firsthand what it means to "play from the right sheet of music." They develop crucial skills in emotional intelligence, accountability, conflict resolution and effective communication—the true chords of workplace excellence.

In this episode, Dr. Brenner shares how his clients report rapid improvement in team cohesion and performance following his innovative sessions. Whether an organization is struggling with discord or simply seeking to enhance an already harmonious environment, the improvement can be phenomenal. Listen as the workplace doctor shares a sampling of his insights published in his new book: "Strike the Right Chord: The Emerging Leader's Guide to Exceptional Performance," the roadmap to his CHORDS Model™ and its six essential “notes” for elevating leadership and teamwork, to discover how your team can find its perfect pitch.
