ULI Cincinnati continues to host its Young Leaders Group’s Growing Professional Skills Series. The series will bring a relevant and timely topic to our YLG every other month to provide information and experience as professionals navigate the path to a successful career.

Join the Young Leaders Group in kicking off the 2021 Growing Professional Skills series on Wednesday, February 24th at 4:00 pm. The featured guest is Wade Johnston, the Director of Tri-State Trails. Since 2015 Wade has been leading the charge in carrying out a 10-county Regional Trails Plan. Wade will share his approach to executing such a plan, touch on some of the successes the organization has facilitated, and give some insight on what lies ahead in trail development in our region. This conversation will be followed by a virtual happy (half) hour where participants will get to know Wade more personally and hear about his career path.
