The Power of Dynamics: How Contrasting Personality Styles Can Make Teams Stronger
New Keynote for 2020
Great for conflict resolution, and I loved hearing the music, it really helped me remember things…
Deborah Wendt, Joint Genome Institute Administrator, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Every organization on the planet is made of individuals with different personality styles. These differing styles can lead to chaos and inefficiency or come together to compliment each other and create something greater than the sum of its parts.
In this engaging, entertaining and informative keynote Aram Boyd uses the metaphor of music to show how so much noise can turn into sweet sounds when leaders leverage their team’s personality styles to further a common goal.
As a musician himself, Aram brings with him decades of experience playing music with others who may have different levels of skill and musicianship – but are equally committed to bringing out the best in each other in order to make their “team” a success on stage.
As a corporate trainer and speaker, Aram brings this same sensibility to business relationships and inspires his audiences to recognize the musical potential in their relationships through story and performance. This keynote is at once entertaining, inspiring and educational.
A Certified Virtual Presenter, Aram can deliver his programs on any platform.

I’m with the band: using musical metaphor to deliver better results
Using the metaphor of a band or orchestra Boyd goes through the importance of individual contributors as part of a greater whole – delivering results far beyond what they could in isolation.
Through the power of storytelling and music, Aram shows participants how the power of different personalities within a team can either compliment or conflict with each other.
The Dynamics of Leadership: Composing your Vision and Directing your Performers
This highly interactive internal workshop for leaders can be delivered as either a half day or full day session.
Through exercises, case studies, and group discussion Aram demonstrates how different personality styles within teams impact overall effectiveness. Managing this diversity results in more productive, harmonious workplaces, greater engagement, and far less stress.
If your group needs to move from individual competitors to a high performing team, this training will be a valuable investment.
As a speaker, trainer, and coach Aram applies the same lessons he learned from door-to-door selling and jazz performance to help leaders and teams deliver better results.
Aram uses music as a way to make leadership and organizational development accessible to everyone. To do this he relies on two concepts from music that apply directly to business and leadership – structure and improvisation. He’ll help your leaders drive performance in your existing structure while inspiring them to innovate leadership within your culture like jazz masters.
