There are several reasons I am interested in serving on a board. They include making a contribution through my communications skills and experience, engaging in networking and making connections for personal and professional growth, and exposure to new learnings and opportunities for development. Finally, I have lived in Summit County and worked for more than 24 years in Akron, and giving back to this great city and community would give me personal fulfillment.
I am interested in serving on a board to represent our female presence in the construction industry and advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion within our community. I believe I would gain knowledge from other like-minded individuals, build a stronger professional network, and hopefully make a difference in our community.
I recently relocated to Akron and am excited to serve our great community and get connected to the amazing folks leading those efforts. I enjoy staying busy and being on working boards and committees, in the efforts of making real contributions. My areas of interest are victim services/advocacy, substance use, animal rights/welfare, adult education and supporting non-profits doing work that supports these efforts.
Serving on a board allows me to contribute my expertise and make meaningful decisions that shape the organization"s future. I love surrounding myself with individuals who are not like-minded and I hope to gain valuable leadership experience, expand my network, and make a positive impact on the community through my board service.
I would love to be on the board to be a part of the community, empower other business owners through sharing information, offering any tips I may have to help others, and try to help or come up with creative content to interest others to join or attend the chamber/meetings.
I want to serve on a Board to share my knowledge and experience with other organizations and to give back to the community. I am looking forward to the opportunity to network with others in different industries with experience and knowledge.
Transitioning off a long term board and another Board leadership position that I have held for multiple years. Looking for a new opportunity in an area that I am passionate about.
