After 3 memorable years, yOUng is looking for new board members! Perhaps the New Year would be a good time to set new goals and new challenges. Of course, the current board will support in getting started. See below what the current board members say about their experience!

After a well-deserved coffee break (with vlaai!) 🍰 the last activity of the day: a panel discussion with panel members from different perspectives (i.e., expertise (within the OU), age, departments, etc.) about topics raised by yOUrday participants! 🗣💪🏼 #yOUrday2019

[yOUng @yOUngOUNL]

1, 2, 3 or shall we say: clap, jump, dance?! 💃🏽🕺🏼 An interactive workshop by Teamspeling made us collaborate in a different way than we are used to, and made us think of new ways of how we are connected and how we can collaborate! 🤔#yOUrday2019

[yOUng @yOUngOUNL]

Jasper discussed the characteristics of different generations, and how they can be valued in an organization/institute as the OU. Adaptation from all sides (generations and the institute) is necessary to create an efficient, effective and enjoyable work environment! #yOUrday2019

[yOUng @yOUngOUNL]

We kicked off yOUrday well with an interesting keynote by Jasper Scholten on generation differences and the millennial mystery! #yOUrday2019
