Episode Description from the Publisher

Jenna Segal is writing women into the history books in arts and entertainment. Women make up more than 75% of theater audiences, yet are rarely in the decision-making seats. Jenna has stepped in to change that narrative. She is an Emmy, Tony, and Clio award-winning producer of Broadway hits including Hadestown, Gigi, and Six, as well as the visionary behind The 31 Women Collection of remarkable female artists. In this episode of The Leadership Dance, she discusses how she moved from CNN and MTV to Broadway, why she insists on supporting women in leading roles, and how she built an amazing career by just saying yes. 💡 Key Takeaways: Ask who's missing from the room and make space for women in decisions, not just in the audience. Say yes before you feel ready and follow your curiosity. Build a life and career you're proud to "lose money on" because it aligns with your values.
