The Background Dancer

Why in the Background?


Listen Later

As part of a double-episode launch, I now take you through the four major principles of why all this is so important to me, and hopefully also to you. This episode will expand on the tenets of: 

Community Building 

  • Enriching social capital by virtue of TRUST
  • Establish connectivity by maximizing technology and talent mobility 

Education

  • Nurturing more adaptable leaders and impact drivers in the industry
  • Leadership as a cultivated trait rather than an inherent gift

Workforce Versatility

  • Need for more multi-faceted artists in the everchanging industry
  • Developing transferable skills in preparation for post-performance career possibilities 

Career Progression

  • Lack of HR support hinders talent and career development throughout cultural organizations
  • Analyze and consider your career compatibility at all times 


Soundtrack: Birds - Tyler Twombly
