Silfen Leadership Series Videos

Business leader Diana Taylor and NYC Ballet Chair Kathy Brown shared valuable leadership insights during a recent campus event. Taylor discussed navigating male-dominated financial environments early in her career, emphasizing the importance of standing firm amid challenging workplace cultures. Brown detailed the Ballet's successful initiatives to build—not merely revitalize—younger audiences, including their "30 Under" program which has attracted 31,000 members. Their "Art Series" has proven remarkably effective at converting first-time visitors into returning patrons. As Chair, Brown has united the board around maintaining excellence while honoring both tradition and innovation. The organization also focuses on supporting dancers through career transitions, recognizing the unique challenges these athletes face when they retire in their thirties or early forties.
