Miles Davis, Product Management and winging it

https://www.kennorton.com/essays/please-make-yourself-uncomfortable.html

I've grown to enjoy jazz as an adult so this was an interesting take on product management and I like it. There needs to be some innovative winging it concept.  And individuality and listening skills.
