what is the five for five session?
Rapid-Fire style presentations have become a popular way of sharing ideas in a concise, engaging way. Presenters have a limited amount of time and slides available to share an idea, keeping the audience engaged and the overall session moving at a fast, lively pace. For the 2022 YANG Leadership Conference, the Five for Five session will include multiple Five Slides in Five Minutes presentations on topics that matter to young professionals in the auto care industry.
WHAT IS EXPECTED OF A PRESENTER?
Presenters will be given a five-minute presentation, using just five slides, on a professional development topic relevant to the YANG community.
