Key Takeaways from Aretha Franklin's estate: The lack of a clear Will can lead to family conflict and financial impact. Aretha Franklin’s case serves as a strong example. Without a definitive Will, your estate may face unnecessary legal fees, asset depreciation and tax complications. Seek guidance from an estate planning professional to clarify your estate plan and protect your loved ones.
Aretha Franklin was an icon in the music industry. For her family, Aretha’s passing in 2018 should have been a time to celebrate the artist and mourn her passing. But quickly, a series of estate planning issues emerged that took over the moment. Comerica thought leaders Lisa Featherngill, Andrea Bruce and Steven Zamenski look at the details of Aretha Franklin's estate and lessons we should all take away on the need for a clear Will. https://bit.ly/3WHlhmf 📷: Jan Persson/Redferns/Getty Images #EstatePlanning #ArethaFranklin #Comerica #ComericaWealthManagement #LessonsLearned

Refreshing and well-phrased observation: encourage children to speak to each other about the art that they’re viewing and what they liked in it (there is no real need for them to have jargon to take recourse to). Art would become less distant if they have spoken/can speak about it to friends (as opposed to, to teachers, where they may be nervous and/or less authentic)
Baithak is immensely grateful for dedicated artists like Madhavi, who have been instrumental in enriching our programs through their passion and expertise. This enthusiasm for exploring both, music and dance exemplifies the success of our collaborative efforts. We are truly thankful for Madhavi's dedication and her transformative impact on our students, inspiring them to embrace the arts with openness and excitement. #Taleemsessions #Creativecollaboration #Musicanddance #Activelistening #Youthengagement #Artisticexploration #Inspiringcreativity #Baithakcommunity #Culturalgrowth #Baithakfoundation #NGO

Fun news... I'm now going to be closing Classical:NEXT... ON A BOAT!!! If you're still there on Friday 17th, come join me on a boat (yes a boat) for a provocation and networking session: "Too Much Talking – Not Enough Doing Committing to change in a world of disruption." https://lnkd.in/g4-Eas8j We live in a world of disruption, with new technology affecting all aspects of life and how we interact as a society. Despite this, we keep trying to operate with a 20th century mentality in a 21st century world. Conferences can be inspirational events, but it can be hard to keep this momentum going and implement change when we return home. It can also be isolating to be the only changemaker in your organisation or network. With an eye on the future, this session will examine the need for change and take a light-hearted look at the industry’s habit of repeating outdated ways of doing things, before helping you find like-minded people on similar journeys to you who can become a supportive community in between conferences. This community is for sharing ideas and inspiration and a framework to help keep each other accountable as we stop talking and start doing." #ClassicalNext #Classical #ClassicalMusic #Opera
