We Want To Hear From You

If you’re like me, your January might have been a bit busy with reflecting on your career path, goal-setting, meetings, catching up after the holiday break and fending off a constant stream of germs -- without all that much time to focus on your priorities.  So February is a perfect time to put resolutions into practice. 

As I catch my breath after a whirlwind month, I’m so thankful and inspired that you’ve committed to strengthening yourself and the nonprofit community by engaging with YNPN, and hope you'll join us at an event soon.

I am thrilled to serve YNPN as Chair with a fantastic Advisory Board and Committees full of dedicated young professionals (note:we’re recruiting if you want to join the team!).  We’re here to provide the connections, resources, and leadership opportunities you need to advance your career and create a thriving San Diego.  

To that end, we’d like to hear what challenges and opportunities you’re facing, what you want to see more of, and what your plans are so we can helpWe’ve partnered with a graduate researcher to look at trends among emerging nonprofit leaders, and would love your participation in her survey as well as your direct feedback to me or other YNPN leaders.

You can reach me personally at lauren@ynpnsandiego.org, on LinkedIn, on Twitter or at an event. (Full disclosure: I have some pretty goofy tweets mixed in with the #emergingleaders)

Whether you’ve started a new role, are in transition, or are rocking your current position, we’re delighted to have you with YNPN San Diego and look forward to a fantastic year together.

Sincerely yours,

Lauren Grattan
Chair
