マイケル・ジャクソンからキャリアスキルを学ぶにはどうすればよいでしょうか?

によって アドリアナ・ラメス (アドリアナ・ラメス) - キャリアコーチ兼著名な作家

マイケル・ジャクソンの映画「This Is It」を見たことがありますか？ステージ上でもステージ外でも、マイケル・ジャクソンのアートに対する素晴らしい視点です。私はこの映画を観るまで、そしてもちろん、最近またテレビで観たと言うべきですが、私の目は、彼がグループで活動しているときであれ、ソロで活動しているときであれ、彼の天才の深さに気づいていませんでした。

グループアーティストとソロアーティスト

1977年*、ジャクソン5とモータウン*で14年間と14枚のアルバムを制作した後、マイケルは独自の商業的アイデンティティを確立し、エピック・レコードから初のソロ・アルバム『オフ・ザ・ウォール』をリリースしました。このアルバムの成功のさなか、「スリラー」が登場し、当時世界中で 5,000 万枚を売り上げ、7 曲の爆発的なシングルを収録し、一夜で 8 つのグラミー賞を受賞するという記録を樹立しました。 1984年、彼はジャクソンズを脱退し、ソロ活動を始めることを正式に発表した。

Musician and Filmmaker

When you watch the film This Is It, you’ll understand that Jackson had talent in many areas—from choosing dancers to reviewing the notes of every song and the musical keys. In short, he had a hand in everything. But that’s not all. He also appeared in a $30 million film directed by Francis Ford Coppola titled “Captain EO,” which was shown at Disneyland.

Businessman and Philanthropist

He was a business-minded “chicken” who, in 1985, bought the catalog of ATV Music songs—including works by the Beatles—for $47.5 million. Ten years later, he merged ATV with Sony and sold 50% of his share to Sony for $90 million. In 1992, he founded the Heal The World Foundation and sent millions of dollars around the world to support children who were victims of war, poverty, and disease. He set aside personal gain and gave 100% of the income from the Dangerous Tour and the record-breaking $20 million in revenue from its television broadcast rights on HBO to charitable foundations.

For children and the world, these aid efforts were just beginning. He was eager in supporting research related to AIDS/HIV and asked Clinton (the president) to support the AIDS-fighting foundations, help with research, and send a goodwill ambassador to oversee more than a thousand AIDS patients in Africa and Egypt.

From One Branch to Another

Not all of us can, in a single moment, be a Grammy-winning artist, filmmaker, businessman, and humanitarian activist at this level and scale. However, we can learn from マイケル・ジャクソン’s wise and perceptive character. He moved from one branch to another, but he never lost focus on the core of each of these areas. For example, if he held a concert, his earnings went to charities. Or he chose music as the basis for his business side and started a publishing company. What matters is that you focus on your specific skill, but also develop it into other areas that you can naturally do as well.

(*Mistake by the author: 1979 is correct.)

[For more information: Michael began his career as the lead singer with the Jackson 5 (1964 to 1975). The group then changed its name to the Jacksons after joining CBS Records in 1976. Michael left the Jacksons in 1984. He began his solo career with Epic Records in 1979 and released a total of 6 studio albums by 2001.

* Michael recorded 10 studio albums with the Jackson 5 and 6 studio albums with the Jacksons.

* When Michael was still a member of the Jackson 5 (from 1972 to 1975), he also released four solo albums with Motown.

So Michael released a total of 14 albums with Motown.]
