YPN Action Teams: Get Involved & Make an Impact

The Young Professionals Network (YPN) offers members many ways to get involved beyond attending events. One of the best ways is joining an Action Team. These teams play a key role in shaping and planning the events that bring our network together.

Social Action Team

The Social Action Team is YPN’s networking event planning committee. This group meets every other month to brainstorm and select locations for upcoming networking events such as Morning Buzz, Off the Clock and Power Lunch. They also help coordinate several of YPN’s signature events, including The Kringle, the annual golf tournament and the Birthday Bash.

Growth & Impact Action Team

Formerly known as the Personal & Professional Development/Civic Engagement Action Team, the Growth & Impact Action Team focuses on events designed to help members grow, learn and connect with the community. This team plans programs such as A Seat at the Table, Community Connection Tours, Topics on Tap, Our Sioux Falls and more.

Both Social Action Team and Growth & Impact Action Team meetings are open to all YPN members and can be found in this issue’s calendar on pages 8-9 or on siouxfallsypn.com.

The Link Team

One of the newest ways to get involved is by joining The Link Team. This group serves as YPN’s welcoming crew, ensuring every attendee feels included and connected. Members of The Link Team are easy to spot at events by their orange ribbons that read “The Link Team.” Their mission is simple: create a friendly, approachable environment where everyone can build meaningful connections.

If you are interested in being part of The Link Team, reach out to YPN Manager Jaci Pieters at jpieters@siouxfalls.com.
