Dominic Alldis, a leading jazz musician, orchestral conductor and conference speaker, is the founder of Music & Management, an organisation providing musical learning events for conferences and leadership development programs. With over 30 years experience in the music industry, Dominic is an incredibly talented individual that has a distinctive approach to using his flair. He also is a Steinway Artist and an Honorary Associate of the Royal Academy of Music in London.
An accomplished musician and passionate jazz artist, Dominic has studied classical cello piano and organ, as well as conducting and composition studies. Throughout his career, he has performed at a number of high profile events and recorded several albums. Having tried out and learnt a number of different musical styles, techniques and instruments, Dominic decided to take his learnings and use them to help others in a completely unique and highly engaging way, thus Music & Management was created.
Uniquely placed to bring his insights and talents into the contemporary business world, Dominic likes to explore the synergy between different musical cultures and how that research could benefit businesses and individuals alike. Keen to use music as a tool to inspire change in businesses, Dominic has advised and consulted a range of clients from all around the world including leading international companies such as Cartier, Coca-Cola, eBay, the NHS, Renault, Unilever, Yamaha and Google.
During his highly thought-provoking presentations, Dominic will often use a series of interactive musical experiences for participants to explore the importance of leadership and collaboration, teamwork and creativity and preparation and performance. He does all of this using the influence of a jazz band, symphony orchestra and classical string quartet to allow participants to learn these techniques using the universal language of music.
