Pulse Check: Finding Your Why — Part 1
Episode description
In this debut episode of our new Pulse Check on seeking purpose in the world of Higher Ed, guest Carrie Phillips joins guest host Kin Sejpal to discuss her purpose as higher ed leader, and what keeps her - and her team - going.
Insightful takeaways include:
- Personal and professional experiences can shape one’s purpose.
- Making space in the day-to-day grind to soak in the environment can be invigorating.
- Regularly centering conversations around institutional mission can help teams stay focused and motivated.
- Integrating students as student workers, focus group members, and/or ambassadors can keep MarComm close to the student experience.
- MarComm can add value by breaking silos and connecting the whole student experience, thus contributing to student success and institutional mission.
