Women Leaders Podcast, Episode 82: Chrissi Rawak

On the most recent episode of the Women Leaders Podcast, Patti Phillips is joined by Chrissi Rawak, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation Services at University of Delaware.
 
Chrissi has such an interesting journey; she started as an assistant swimming coach, and spent time as both the personnel and business resources director at Northwestern, and as the talent management and development operations VP at Michigan, her alma mater. Not the job titles we normally see in athletics advancement.  Listen in to hear which one best prepared her to be an AD, and for those interested in in fundraising, Chrissi shares a tip, “no means maybe, and maybe means yes!”
 
Chrissi also talks about the most challenging parts of transitioning into the AD chair, the value in surrounding yourself with people who are smarter than you, and she shares the four phases to her Critical Thinking Model.
 
Chrissi gives us A LOT of nuggets in this podcast, so be sure to take it all in! I hope you enjoy our conversation, and remember, we are Women Leaders!
