Manage episode 403096689 series 2602058
On this special episode of Real Success, I sat down at the Iowa Athletic Club for a live podcast recording with Bob Bowlsby and Beth Goetz, who both have incredible careers in athletics and happen to represent two generations who have taken on the mantle as Athletic Director of the University of Iowa.
Bob Bowlsby served as the fourth commissioner of the Big 12 Conference from 2012 to 2022. Prior to that position, he served as the athletic director at the University of Northern Iowa, University of Iowa, and Stanford University.
Beth Goetz is the newly appointed Athletic Director at the University of Iowa, but has been with the department since 2022. She previously was the Athletic Director at Ball State University from 2018 to 2022.
Bob and Beth explore the differences between Bob’s time as Iowa’s Athletic Director back in 1990 and Beth’s early experience in the role, how Beth is approaching a new strategic planning process, and the two dig into the changing landscape of college athletics, including the repercussions of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness). Additionally, Beth touches on long-term facility plans at Iowa, both share their thoughts on the deep partnership universities need to have with their communities, and both Bob and Beth take a turn praising Iowa’s most exciting current player, Caitlin Clark.
I learned a lot, and I think you will too.
