About the Episode

The what's what...

This week's Fanatical Friday's episode is the second part of an Enrollify Podcast two-part series (catch the first episode here). Zach Busekrus is joined by a special guest, Jamie Gleason, a 15-year enrollment management veteran (both on campus and in the ed-tech/enrollment marketing space).

Anthony de Mello, a Jesuit priest and psychotherapist said that "We yearn for change, but cling to the familiar."  Those who have been in enrollment management for a long time get opportunities every year to adapt what they do - and summer is often when many of those changes are attempted. Zach asks Jamie if he had opportunities to change how he did things on or after May 1st as a Director of Admission, what would he do differently? What would he focus more on and less on? What practices would he implement to bring about sustained change within an institution or within the admissions office?

If you are heading into that summer mindset when everything starts to feel stale, tune into the episode for fresh ideas that go beyond the familiar.
