REMINDER: ELAM Database Survey: Your response needed!
 
Your help is needed in getting a thorough update of our ELAM database. One of the main ways we use our database is to partner with institutions and search firms to identify candidates for leadership roles. We are looking to confirm your basic contact information as well as information about your career experience and specialties to better connect you with your fellow ELUMs and with search firms. You also have the option to let us know if you no longer wish to be contacted by search firms. The survey should only take a few minutes to complete. Please access the survey here. Thank you for your time!
