There is a classic live recording of Ella Fitzgerald at a club in Berlin in 1963, forgot the lyrics to Mack the Knife, but had to keep singing. In my days as a staff developer, it was a performance every day. Theme song became Turn the Page by Bob Segar, had been on the road for three weeks either training or presenting, driving back to Atlanta from Ft. Bragg through massive rain from a tropical storm. Could certainly relate to that tune...Spot on that we are competing for our kids attention/engagement with trained professionals, and it is a captured performance every day. Like good musicians everywhere, the tune goes on, and once in a great while, we have to fake it until we make it, just like Ella did in 1963.Gary Kiddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18048679309347177190noreply@blogger.com
