New Podcast Episode Featuring Nicole Perry discussing Psychological Safety at Work

My dear friend and past theatre colleague Rebecca Vickers has a podcast called “Bad Bosses, Great Leaders” and she interviews leaders from a variety of industries to offer their insights and advice on what makes a leader, not just a boss.

Rebecca and I talked about psychological safety- what it is, how to create it and why it’s important.

Check out “Psychological Safety, Vulnerability, and Encouraging Creative Leadership” now here, or wherever you get your podcasts!

Dancing with an Ex?

Dance Magazine offers some perspectives and advice with their new article, featuring some words of wisdom from me.

My favorite: Keeping things professional is essential, even in a workplace that emphasizes expressivity. “We’re constantly tapping into our emotions to tell a story,” Perry says. “That mindset of ‘I’m at work now’ is really important.

More about Books

While I do have a book of my coming out (see below), I’ve also contributed to a couple that were published recently.

My colleagues and friends Elaine and Heather have a great book for dance and theatre teachers on incorporating consent-forward practices into the classroom. I was honored that they wanted to interview me for it, and extra-honored that when the New York Public Library interviewed them about the book, one of my quotes (one of my favorite things to say!) was featured. See the interview and get Consent Practices for Performing Arts Education.

Besides being interviewed for that book, and Intimacy Coordinator’s Guidebook which came out earlier in 2024 (see post about it below), I wrote a chapter for the latest installment in Routledge’s Applied Theatre series, Applied Theatre and Gender Justice! This book offers case studies and tools for using theatre to make the world a better place. This just came out and is on sale until January 6, so get it now!

Talking about Choreography

I have an interview up with VoyageMIA talking about choreography. It’s one of the “Hidden Gems” on their website.
