Label Manager - Disrupción Records
Files
Abstract
For my Culminating Experience project, I took on the operational role of Label Manager/CEO of Disrupción Records. I chose this project because I want to build a career leading global music businesses, and I saw this as an entry-level opportunity of working with diverse genres in a real world setting. This role was important for me in understanding the moving parts of an independent record label. In this role, I was responsible for the affairs of the label, managing internal activities of its executive team, and the imprints. I was equally focused on developing external sustainable strategies that would be important for the long-term growth of the label. This role required project management, planning, research, and practical execution of ideas. Through this project, I learned how to balance creative ideas with business realities and how to lead a team effectively. Some challenges were expected, like time management, while others, like navigating limited resources, were surprising yet exciting. Overall, this experience has prepared me for future leadership roles as well as provided me with insights on the nuances of diverse genres.
