Join us for the 2018 relaunch of our popular Peer Leadership Forum (PLF).

This event is more than an opportunity for you to reconnect with your PLF team and your competitors — it's also your opportunity to be one of the first to find out the theme for the 2018 Big Idea Contest. In addition, you will learn tips from an industry professional on what it takes to deliver the perfect pitch.

Want to have a competitive advantage for our final Pitch Contest in April? Make sure to round up your whole PLF team for this event!

Why attend?

  • Be there for the 2018 Big Idea Contest reveal.
  • Learn from a top industry professional on how to deliver the perfect pitch.
  • Connect with new and existing CYP Members in a fun and friendly environment.

Why participate on a PLF team?

Peer Leadership Forums are discussion groups that meet monthly to share ideas, personal goals, and insights from industry leaders. The end result is new friendships, new perspectives, and a lot of fun.

Members are grouped into diverse teams of emerging leaders representing a variety of different industries and career stages. Teams will then meet monthly to work on a solution to the question announced during this event. Learn more about PLF.
