September's Leadership on Main featured Doug Piekarz, President & CEO of the Akron Zoo. In this episode, Doug sits down with Stephanie York of Hennes Communications, as they explore Doug's passion for inspiring lifelong learning and nature conservation. Doug takes us on an adventure through his life that began in the concrete jungle of New York City, to his grandfather's cabin in the Catskill Mountains, finally landing in Akron, Ohio, where he's spent the last 20 years at the Akron Zoo. Stephanie and Doug discuss the zoo's ever-increasing attendance record, the zoo's recognition as the second zoo in the nation to become certified by Kulture City as a sensory inclusive zoo, and the assets that make the Akron Zoo so unique.
