Power of Personal Narratives
“Music has given me a different perspective on how I view myself and the
world around me. YOLA has shaped me to be a better leader, role model,
and made me realize I could be a part of something greater in life.”
Raymond Chaves, Age 15, Clarinetist
Youth Orchestra LA (YOLA), a project of the LA Philharmonic

Values intersection
Be Strategic, Make a Plan
1.
Resources: who brings what
o a budget is a strategy expressed in dollars and time
2.
Timing is everything
o Know when decision-makers are making up their minds – and also know when they
will be deaf to you
3.
Not everyone will see it your way
o Knowing your opponents’ strengths and weaknesses is important - don’t focus on
what they will do, but what they could do
4.
KISS - Keep It Simple, Silly
o The fewer moving parts means there is less chance for any one of them to break
down
5.
No plan survives the first battle
o No plan can be so rigid that it cannot accommodate change. Because change is
inevitable
