On today's episode of "Conversations On Dance" we are joined by Elizabeth Yntema the president and founder of Dance Data Project, an organization that promotes gender equity through its research and analysis. Dance Data Project has just released its Artistic and Executive Director compensation report and Elizabeth helps us comb through the data to explore things like the remaining gender pay gap and pay increases for executives in spite of deficits. Visit dancedataproject.com to view the full report. https://www.dancedataproject.com/ddp-research/artistic-and-executive-compensation-report-2024/

* ADDITIONAL NOTE regarding dancer compensation * Follow up from DDP: "In FY22, 1 company within the Largest 10 reported dancer salaries - San Francisco Ballet. In FY23, 4 companies within the Largest 10 reported dancer salaries - San Francisco Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Houston Ballet, and Pacific Northwest Ballet. Notably, all of the dancers with reported salaries were principal dancers."

According to the IRS, here are the guidelines for which persons must be listed on Form 990s: "The organization must also list up to 20 current employees who satisfy the definition of key employee (persons with certain responsibilities and reportable compensation greater than $150,000 from the organization and related organizations), and its five current highest compensated employees with reportable compensation of at least $100,000 from the organization and related organizations who are not officers, directors, trustees, or key employees of the organization."
