Alumless: The CMAC Podcast on Alumni Engagement and Advancement
Alumless is the flagship podcast from CMAC, where we explore the ideas, strategies, and stories shaping the future of alumni engagement and advancement. Hosted by Ryan Catherwood and Chris Marshall, the show dives into the real-world challenges and innovations that advancement leaders face every day — from building stronger alumni communities to driving donor pipelines.
Occasionally, Alumless also features special episodes under the Alumless World banner — global conversations co-hosted by Ryan and Nicole Kempton, Director of Alumni Engagement at Imperial College London, that highlight international perspectives, cross-border trends, and fresh ideas from alumni relations leaders around the world. While the Alumless World name will continue to appear within select episodes, all content will now flow through the unified Alumless podcast feed, making it easier for listeners to enjoy everything in one place.
Whether you're a longtime listener or just discovering the show, Alumless brings you dynamic conversations with advancement professionals, thought leaders, and innovators across higher education and beyond.
Live Broadcasts & Extended Content
Both Alumless and Alumless World air live on LinkedIn every other Friday, alternating weeks to provide year-round strategic insights for advancement professionals.
Our extended podcast versions feature exclusive bonus segments that dive deeper into strategic applications, helping you move from conceptual understanding to practical implementation at your institution.
At CMAC, we believe advancement—when grounded in values and driven by vision—can do more than raise funds; it can transform the future of higher education.
