Jennielle Strother - a podcast by Ken Anselment

Ken chats with Jennielle Strother (Twitter, LinkedIn), VP for Enrollment Management and Chief Enrollment Officer at Concordia University Texas. Learn the origin story of #EMchat, which she co-founded with Alex Williams, as well as the way she approaches her daily work... and why "pressure is a privilege."

Links and lists

• "Pressure is a privilege" (Pep Guardiola) which Jennielle heard while watching All or Nothing—Manchester City. As Jennielle says, "I was watching the show with my husband one night, and there was a scene when he was talking to his team in the locker room and he very nonchalantly said, 'pressure is a privilege' (which I’m sure was in between a few curse words) and I emailed the four words to myself at that moment."

• Memorable bit of advice: from her volleyball coach, who said, "All you need to do is show up and I'll get you where you need to be." She adds, "And by 'show up,' he meant 110% of me in practice and games: heart, mind, body."
