Chair's Lunch Speaker

Amy Trask has had many titles during her career: chief executive, analyst, and author.

Trask spent almost 30 years with the Raiders organization, where she became the NFL's first female front office executive and ultimately its CEO. She was the highest-ranking female executive in the NFL and one of the highest-ranking women in American professional sports.

Since 2013, Trask’s role with football extended to television as a studio analyst for CBS Sports Network and CBS Sports. She is an analyst on THAT OTHER PREGAME SHOW, a panelist on WE NEED TO TALK, the first nationally televised all female sports show, and she contributes to THE NFL TODAY on CBS. In her book, You Negotiate Like a Girl: Reflections on a Career in the National Football League, Trask shared her experience as the highest-ranking female executive in the league.

Trask co-hosts a podcast, “What The Football, With Suzy Shuster & Amy Trask.” Trask serves on the advisory board of directors of the Los Angeles Sports and Entertainment Commission and serves on the East West Shrine Bowl Advisory Team.

Trask received a WISE Woman of the Year Award awarded by Women in Sports and Events, a 2018
Campanile Excellence in Achievement Award awarded by the UC at Berkeley Foundation and the Cal Alumni
Association, and a 2020 Top Women in Media Award awarded by Cynopsis Media. In 2019, as part of the
National Football League's commemoration of its 100-year anniversary, Trask was named as one of the top 100 Greatest Game Changers in NFL history.
