RPI AD Kristie Bowers joins Connect/MB Sports’ Matt Banker from the 2024 NCAA Convention to discuss her first months leading the Engineers, transparency in leadership, creating a great student-athlete experience and more. One student-athlete on the search committee that brought Bowers to campus pinpointed her transparency as a one of her key attributes, to which she elaborates: “When it comes to decision making, I want to make sure people understand my why behind things. Whether it's a student-athlete, a coach, a staff member, if I'm making a decision I'm putting on all those hacks that I've worn previously, but I'm also giving the explanation of how did I get here. I think that's been really key because as a new leader everyone's wondering what does this look like and if you're telling your why and you're explaining the decisions behind it, my hope is that in another couple months my staff feels really confident to execute that why without having to feel like they have to always check in with me.” In conversations with student-athletes, they have identified championship level support, the ability to grow professionally and career readiness as keys to a great experience. Check out the full conversation only on Connect. (link)

HC Cora Zackrison: “The decision to cancel the remainder of our season was not an easy one, however the health and safety of our athletes is always the number one priority and we as a coaching staff and department had to do what we think is best for our athletes. Definitely no one wanted it to end this way, and I commend the girls for playing so hard this year despite the adversities we've faced and keeping a positive attitude in light of it all, and for that I'm extremely proud of all of them.” (link)

Transylvania Women’s Basketball HC Juli Fulks departs after 10 seasons in charge to accept the same position at Marshall (DI). AD Holly Sheilley: “There is no doubt the impact that Coach Fulks has had during her time here. National Champions, 64 game winning streak, National Coach of the year, and the accolades go on. However, even without any of those, Juli is a phenomenal human being that you realize you are blessed to know.

Randolph hires The Apprentice School (USCAA) Men’s Basketball HC Evan Kee for the same position. AD Tom Galbraith: "Evan's qualifications stood out among an excellent pool of applicants in the search for our new head coach.

I witnessed his championship team play this season and was impressed with the talent level and disciplined play.

According to workforce analytics firm ActivTrak, which analyzed 75K workers across North America, the average worker now signs off an hour earlier on Fridays, at 4:03 pm, than in 2021. That’s also an hour earlier than the average quitting time the rest of the week. Founder/CEO of Interactive learning platform Albert, Luke Liu, who moved to a half-day Friday police in 2022, says of his all-remote staff’s productivity: “On paper, it’s a 10% loss of time. In reality, it’s a 2% to 5% loss.” The Wall Street Journal’s Vanessa Fuhrmans “Friday, of course, was always the day we might dress down or cut out early for Happy Hour. The difference now is that it’s become a repository for all the ways we—and our employers—want to fix work life. Welcome to the meeting-free zone of Focus Fridays. Need a respite from the grind? More bosses are instituting year-round Summer Fridays as an antidote.” More data around the shift in the Friday schedule. (link)
