Just got elected onto your sorority's executive council? CONGRATULATIONS! Once the reality of this privileged opportunity sinks in, you might find yourself leaning toward one of two extremes: 1) getting ready to change everything that's been done in your position before hoping for a different result than you've seen in the past or 2) preparing to replicate the plans you have seen executed in the past to ensure the same results.

In this episode, you’ll learn why both extremes can be dangerous to your sisterhood’s health and growth! Cassie has a framework of questions to ask yourself every time you are considering making a change to identify if it’s a pillar (something that should be sustained) or a banner (something to innovatively reimagine!)

So you're coming to the end of your sorority officer position - what's next in your sorority journey? As your sisters in your chapter prepare to transition into the roles you and your friends have held this past year, let's get you ready to STEP UP as a leader in the chapter as you step down from your titled role. After serving for a year or longer, it is no easy experience going from the executive board to being a general member so Kayla Eggering, the recruitment advisor and past chapter president of Alpha Sigma Alpha at Missouri State, joined Cassie to unpack helpful considerations & the nuances of this transition. Tune in to learn how to find the balance of being present & available to the newly elected officer with not being overbearing and showing up as a role model with caring for yourself after a likely exhausting term. Ultimately, we hope you use these tips as a road map to be able to graduate with pride in your sorority journey & a desire to continue serving your organization as a proud alumna and potentially advisor. You may be stepping down from a title but you are stepping up in leading by example and showing your support!

So you're ready to run for a sorority officer position... have you thought about why? Have you mapped out what you hope to accomplish?

Cassie believes that ALL interested sorority leaders need the take the time to imagine what they hope the chapter would look like as a result of their leadership - cast a clear vision for their leadership term. And it needs to be about impact. Sorority leaders are responsible to leave the chapter better than they found it - you need a vision that will sustain your leadership to do that!

In this episode, let's talk about how to cultivate a vision that reflects the needs of your members, will motivate you throughout the year, and not make the result of elections personally. In short, tune in to learn how run for a sorority officer position NOT about you.
