As an up-and-coming professional and soon-to-be Leadership 2.0 graduate, I can honestly encourage our industry’s youth to participate sooner than later,” said Alena Van Cleave, chairman, YANG. “The program allows exposure to high-caliber aftermarket leaders and invaluable concepts applicable to growing your business. This scholarship allows a YANG member the opportunity to participate in these discussions and learn, absolutely free-of-charge.”
