Former ADMA director of communications and customer experience and experienced marketer, Katherine Raskob, has taken up the CEO reins at the Fundraising Institute of Australia (FIA).
Raskob assumes the CEO mantle from Rob Edwards, who is stepping down after seven years at the helm of the association. FIA has more than 1500 members and focuses on Australia’s $12.5 billion charitable fundraising sector.
Before joining ADMA, Raskob spent less than a year as global head of marketing and communications for recruitment firm, Talent International. Prior to this, she was group marketing director for SBS. In all, she boasts of 20 years’ experience across corporate and not-for-profits in both professional roles and on boards, and is also a member of the board of directors for Girl Guides Australia.
“Katherine’s knowledge of member organisations and her experience across commercial and not-for-profit environments in senior leadership and marketing and communications roles will be invaluable to FIA as we embark on our next phase of growth,” FIA chair, James Garland, said.
Raskob said she was looking forward to working in a strong sector supported by so many Australians.
“FIA is well positioned for further growth as it seeks to expand its representation to include both individual fundraisers as well as charities and non-profit organisations and I’m looking forward to leading this growth into the future,” she said.
Raskob is one of a number of executive departures and changes for ADMA/AADL in recent months. In March, ADMA's leader and instigator of the AADL, Jodie Sangster, left the association after a seven-year run as CEO. Just a month earlier, the group appointed COO, Steve Singha, who became acting CEO across the group while a replacement was sought.
CEO skills gained at Aussie Home Loans, Newcastle Permanent Building Society and SAI Global, and from board, founder and executive director roles throughout many sectors and geographies.

Flash back to the classic film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Television-obsessed Mike insists on becoming the first person to be ‘sent by Wonkavision’, dematerialising on one end, pixel by pixel, and materialising in another space. His cinematic dreams are realised thanks to rash decisions as he is shrunken down to fit the digital universe, followed by a trip to the taffy puller to return to normal size.
Why is it there is no shortage of leadership development materials, yet outstanding leadership is so rare? Despite having access to so many leadership principles, tools, systems and processes, why is it so hard to develop and improve as a leader?
As a nation united by sport, brands are beginning to learn money alone won’t talk without aligned values and action. If recent events with major leagues and their players have shown us anything, it’s the next generation of athletes are standing by what they believe in – and they won’t let their values be superseded by money.
