    7 MAY 2021 Field Studies: NCAA Athletic Director Hiring Criteria and Career Pathways from 2010-19 Volume 3 Issue 1 Preferred Citation: Brooks, S.N., Gallagher, K.L, Lofton, R., Brenneman, L. (2021). Field Studies: NCAA Athletic Director Hiring Criteria and Career Pathways from 2010-19. Retrieved from Global Sport Institute at Arizona State University (GSI Working Paper Series Volume 3 Issue 1): https://globalsport.asu.edu/resources/field-studies-ncaa-athletic-director-hiring- criteria-and-career-pathways-2010-19 Abstract Black, Indigenous, and people of Color leaders in sport face an uphill battle when trying to reach the highest levels of leadership. There are related outcomes for White women as well. Previously, we have found that collegiate and professional head football coaches who are Black men are required to have more and better success in directly relevant experiences. The purpose of this field study was to examine hiring patterns for athletic directors over a ten-year window between 2010 and 2019. Data were analyzed to compare total numbers and percentages of athletic directors hired across race/ethnicity and gender. We found what we expected: race/ethnicity and gender continue to serve as mediating factors in athletic director hires. Results provide evidence that race/ethnicity and gender do matter, but not in isolation – there is an intersection of race/ethnicity and gender that favors men over women and Whites over BIPOC athletic directors. More research is needed to understand the experiences of Black women, as well as Asian Americans, Latinos, and Native and Indigenous men and women, who are nearly or wholly absent.

INTRODUCTION – DEFINITION An athletic director, more commonly referred to as an “AD,” is the overseer of a university’s athletic enterprise, the chief executive officer (CEO) of the athletic enterprise. In most instances, an athletic director is not a faculty member, but a full-time administrator. In some instances, such as in the case of David Williams at Vanderbilt University, the title is greater than that of athletic director. Williams is not only an athletic director but also the Vice Chancellor for Athletics and University Affairs. The athletic director is probably not as well-known as the university’s head football or basketball coach, but his profile, especially at large revenue producing programs, has been enhanced. In many instances, athletic directors are not compensated as well as some of their head coaches, but the demands of their jobs are similar to the demands of a CEO of a major corporation.
