Chris Gale, Director of Tennis at River Oaks Country Club, joins the BeyondTheBaselines.com and our "From The Desk of The Director" Podcast Series From his Australian birth, to the roots he set in New York, through to his work at some of the most elite New England Clubs, Chris Gale now finds himself at the esteemed River Oaks Country Club in Houston, Texas. Chris discusses how his personal growth and business experience in the industry allowed him to follow his path to a club with 4,500 members and 15 teaching professionals. River Oaks, with a net asset value of close to $50 million and an annual turnover hovering at $35 million, is a behemoth among clubs. Chris manages the 16-court facility, which sees all courts booked at the ungodly hour of 6am almost every morning. He shares with us a few insights just as to how he built a well-oiled machine through staffing, member communication, and simply, energy. Although Chris loves to be on the court, he realizes the importance of the administrative and business-side of the role and discusses the evolution of the Director of Tennis position. "When on court, ensure it's not just private lessons!" He looks to the future of the Director of Tennis position and notes that it has morphed in reality to a Director of Racquets. He believes soon that it could be called the CEO of the Racquets Department - a chief executive officer in the office and an instructional leader on the court. In offering advice to up and coming professionals and guiding club boards and search committees, Chris says the number one characteristic, which is a recurring theme, is that a good professional and future director should be able to listen and learn. Having a mentor is inspirational and educational, and even just hashing out an issue with one's mentor makes for a better, wiser, and more disciplined leader. His second bit of advice? Whether at a seasonal or year-round club, "never let your guard down." Leadership again is a current theme and Chris's leadership at all his positions, from his fragile start straight off a boat from Australia, to now leading one of the finest and most comprehensive programs in the country, is clearly evident and truly remarkable. He rotates his professionals so they don't burn out, he offers on-property mentoring and continuing education, and he looks to communicate better each day with both his equity members and staff. Chris earned his stripes long before River Oaks Country Club at the Duxbury Yacht Club on the Massachusetts's coast about an hour outside Boston. Chris made one of New England’s finest yacht clubs a destination where memories were created and summers full of fun and great tennis. And then instead of teaching poaching one day over looking the golf course in Duxbury, he got poached by the Texans. Here's the story.

Full disclosure, HolterMedia has managed media operations for that tournament since 2009. In this episode, Bronwyn talks about her work as a tournament director, her experience as General manager of a World Team Tennis franchise, her role at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and her post-graduate education at Ohio University’s Sport Administration program.  Find complete show notes at https://www.credentialsonly.com/post/ep-1-bronwyn-greer (CredentialsOnly.com).

Where are you looking? Do you taste everything? How long do you persist before you give up? Last episode I spoke with John David Mann, the other half of the writing team that created, The Recipe A Story of Loss, Love and The Ingredients of Greatness. Today I spoke with Chef Charles Carroll. Still grieving my mom's passing on October 1st, I was looking forward to this interview because I found this book so healing both before and after her passing. I knew my mom loved food and cooking and a good book so I was glad this interview was booked many months ago. Chef did not disappoint. It was great to share with him how reading the book while mom was still alive allowed me to be more present with her while preparing food and how we both "tasted" food more because of the book and how the words, and recipes used throughout the book, gave me peace today. The book, a culinary parable, and this interview, will take you on a journey that I hope will open your eyes and your mind to how just re-learning how to "taste life" can change your perspectives on everything you thought you knew. Award winning author, Inspirational Speaker, Producer, and Culinary Olympic Gold Medalist, Chef Charles Carroll is currently the Executive Chef of River Oaks Country Club, in Houston Texas.
