Women Leaders Podcast

Hello and welcome to the Women Leaders in Sports Podcast! I’m your host, Patti Phillips, CEO of Women Leaders. Today, I'm joined by Erika Wallace, Director of Athletics at Wayne State University. In just three years, Erika has grown from an interim role to leading her department with impact across athletics, academics, and the community. Her success stems from showing up with intention and seizing opportunities without waiting for perfect conditions. In this episode, Erika shares how she’s owned her role, made bold decisions, and built confidence as a leader, which she says, was shaped by her experience as a student-athlete and involvement with Women Leaders. Keep listening for more takeaways from Erika and remember, We Are Women Leaders!
