Young Leaders Group

About the Young Leaders Group

The Young Leaders Group (YLG) consists of ULI Washington members under the age of 35 who want to be actively involved in shaping the built environment and the future of the real estate industry in our area.

Today, almost 600 Young Leaders comprise ULI Washington’s YLG, deliberately forming their own programs designed specifically for and by them – in addition to participating in the events, outreach initiatives, and other volunteer committees offered by the Washington District Council.

*Note – Any current ULI member who is under the age of 35 is automatically a YLG ‘member’ here at ULI Washington. Only our YLG committees and leadership positions are application-based.

Mission

To create a unique setting for tomorrow’s real estate and land use leaders, both professionally and socially, with more established professionals fostering a network that creates opportunities to provide responsible leadership and transfer knowledge in the use of land in order to enhance the total environment.
