VI. Update Your Leadership Akron profile
Go to www.leadershipakron.org/alumni. Log in (if you are not already logged in).
Use the dropdown menu to find Update my Profile to review/update your information. It would be a good idea for you to review all of your information and edit as needed. We will use some of this information to create the Class 39 directory. We would also like you to add a photo to your record.
PLEASE especially pay attention to the following two items to ensure you will receive important information related to Leadership Akron:
Make sure that you have a non-work email address as one of your two email addresses on record.
Add your Administrative Assistant’s name and contact information if you would like this person to receive logistical information for program days.
