In this brief podcast segment, the host asks Colette Alexander how music creation relates to engineering and teamwork. Colette explains that the "disagree and commit" principle is exemplified when band members argue but still come together on stage to perform. She emphasizes that despite personal conflicts, the shared higher purpose of delivering a show forces collaboration, mirroring how engineers must set aside disagreements to achieve a common goal.

Chapters

How does this world of music project back to the way that you think about engineering stuff and like, or vice versa? I don't know. Like, how do they influence each other?
There's nothing more indicative of disagree and commit than having a fight with your bandmates and then walking out on stage and playing a show together. Because like, you can, you like can fight all you want. You can like disagree all you want. You can annoy each other all you want because you will, because you will be stuck together for 24 hours a day, and like, that's just life. But when you go out on stage together and you look at each other and you work and you play these songs together in front of people, it's like, it's your higher purpose. It's like why you do what you do. And it is like, I may disagree with you in these situations, but like, we're here to do work. Like, we're here to make a show happen.
