YP + Akwai


Overview

Akwai is offering GPULYP use of it’s technology, platform and methodologies to dramatically increase; [a] the productivity and accountability of members as they work on projects related to GPULYP, [b] GPULYP influence and exposure throughout the valley and [c] the amount of funds raised to support GPULYP events and initiatives.

Akwai is a social network based around goals and accountability. It has a marketplace with thousands of Action Plans that guide users on accomplishing specific objectives. We have Action Plans for goals in almost all categories – we even have Action Plans based on books, empirical articles and curriculums. When an Action Plan is chosen, the app gives step-by-step guidance on how to accomplish the goal. It also tracks progress and pairs each user with accountability partners for guided check-ins.

Each committee will have its own Akwai Action Plan so committee members can understand their role and track progress. Here are some sample questions that can be included in an Action Plan made for those on the Membership Committee:
