About Alumnet

In 2007, the Emerging Leaders Program team topic was: How to Retain Young Professionals in Massachusetts. One of the team’s tasks was to “develop an alumni network of leadership programs in the Boston Region.” This team consisted of Carmelle Bonhometre (Association of Haitian Women), Perry Conrad and Sidney Rodrigues (both from Raytheon), Michael Crowley (Blue Cross Blue Shield), and Renee LeFevre (Boston Redevelopment Authority).  They named their team “Alumnet” and began the process of coming up with a project to retain young professionals in Boston. The team decided to create an ELP website where Boston leaders and program alumni would be featured, along with a calendar of events, an ELP directory, links to other sites of interest, a message board and career information that may be helpful to young professionals.  The Center for Collaborative Leadership is grateful for all of the work that was done to create this site, and we know our ELP Alum will benefit greatly with all it has to offer.
