Louisiana REALTORS® YPN Advisory Council Takes Center Stage at LR Fall Governance Meetings

Louisiana REALTORS® • October 31, 2024

The Louisiana REALTORS® Fall Governance meeting was a whirlwind of activity, and the YPN Advisory Council was right in the thick of it! We had an amazing time connecting with fellow REALTORS®, sharing ideas and planning for an even bigger and better 2025.


Our First Open Advisory Board Meeting

A major highlight was our first-ever Open Advisory Council Board Meeting! We threw open the doors and invited the general membership to join us for an open discussion about the future of the statewide YPN.


We heard some fantastic feedback on:

  • The current status of the YPN Advisory Council: You told us what's working and where we can improve.
  • Your vision for the future: We got a clear picture of where you want to see the YPN Advisory Council go in the coming years.
  • Programming you're craving: From leadership development to networking events, you shared your ideas for the kind of programming that will help you thrive in 2025.


This kind of open dialogue is essential to building a strong and relevant network, and we're so grateful to everyone who participated.


A New Leader Takes the Helm

To top it all off, we celebrated the appointment of our new YPN Advisory Council Chair, Shanna Braxton! Shanna brings a wealth of experience, energy, and passion to the role, and we're incredibly excited to have her lead us into this next chapter.


What's Next for the YPN Advisory Council?

We're hitting the ground running, fueled by the energy and ideas from the Fall Governance meeting. Here's a sneak peek at what we're working on:

  • Developing exciting new programs based on your feedback.
  • Expanding our reach to connect with even more young professionals across Louisiana.
  • Strengthening our partnerships with local associations to create a truly collaborative network.
