The annual conference is on May 11-12 in Atlanta.

The YANG Leadership Conference is catered to the under-40 group of young professionals in the auto care industry and provides a forum for attendees to enhance leadership skills, sharpen global perspective of the industry and develop new relationships with peers.

This year’s conference features a new educational session titled “Five for Five,” which will include multiple five-minute presentations that share ideas in a concise, engaging way from speakers across the industry. Following the five-minute presentations will be a small-group round table session led by each presenter to discuss the bite-sized takeaways from their topics.

Industry professionals interested in submitting an application should choose a presentation topic relevant to young professionals in the auto care industry. Potential topics can include but are not limited to: leadership, negotiating, management skills, and time-management skills. Because the goal of this educational session is to be fast-paced and engaging, presentations submitted for consideration must fit the five minutes, five slides requirement.

The deadline to submit applications is April 4, 2018. All applicants should be registered for the conference or must register for the conference upon selection.
