About Me |
|
| “Everyone thinks I’m crazy,” says J. Mann, “for giving up a good steady job like music for the instability of a corporate life. I know, I know, it may sound childish, but I still have not given up my childhood dreams of becoming a CEO.” On How to be an Ambivalent Negotiator, we find J. Mann playing “analyst rock” as he negotiates his transition from the mundane existence of a rock star lifestyle to the titillating and exciting world of business. “You know, independent music has been good to me,” says J. Mann. “It’s provided me and my family with a comfortable lifestyle. But, I feel like I’m not alive. I feel like a robot. I’ve always been attracted to the splendour of the office building and the utter sexiness of an office cubicle. I know I’m going to have to work hard. People have also told me that I need to drop the polished look of a rock star and get down to the hipness of being a corporate climber.” “I know it’s a young persons game in the corporate domain. The people that are really successful are in their early 20s. Unfortunately, I’m past those years. Everyone wants to be a rebel and work at a big corporation instead of the faceless bore of music.” The result is what J. Mann calls an “audio edition” of ambivalence he so frequently calls upon in business negotiations. Although the two seem paradoxical, J. Mann believes that the creativity needed to thrive in an office cubicle requires resolute contradictions. J. Mann hopes that it will be his steppingstone to finally joining the raucous corporate world. “I know the majority of people in independent music are living lives of quiet desperation with their seemingly square late nights and utter lack of mischief…It’s all about the 6am meeting. That’s far more daring than any late night rock’n’roll event I’ve ever attended.” For high resolution photos and more information, visit: www.jmannmusic.com AMBIVALENT NEGOTIATOR - From HOW TO BE AN AMBIVALENT NEGOTIATOR WELLINGTON DOES MATHEMATICS - From HOW TO BE AN AMBIVALENT NEGOTIATOR The video - THIS CITY IS A MOVIE SET - J.
