Kevin Kocian: Tools to avoid burnout in fraternity and sorority chapters
Episode 645
Tuesday, 24 February, 2026
Kevin Kocian is a lead cloud engineer and the creator of CliqWave, a great communication tool for Fraternity and Sorority chapters. He's a graduate of The University of Texas at Arlington with a degree in Computer Software Engineering. In episode 645 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what pulled him into building technology specifically for fraternities and sororities, what frustrations did he see officers dealing with, why do we still have missed events and burned-out officers, how can we default to proactive help, why it was important to connect calendar, goals, chat, and live location in one workflow, how we get the right nudge without overwhelming members, how do you balance accountability with privacy so members don't feel micromanaged, how features like progress rings, points, and celebration bursts change engagement compared to traditional attendance tracking, what surprised him most when chapters started using CliqWave in real life versus how he expected them to use it, and how CliqWave helped an officer avoid burnout or helped a chapter get back on track. Enjoy!
