Over the Top (OTT) Market Size & Growth Outlook 2024-2030
Ynpn 3.0 story of then, now, & what's next - full version w history
1.
2. The story of YNPN today, is
the story of an active,
vibrant, impactful network.
3. As we move into 2012, we
are a network of almost 34
chapters and 30,000
members across the
country from Boston to
Little Rock to Detroit to San
Francisco.
4. We’ve nearly doubled in
membership over the past
3 years1 and the number of
chapters we boast has
grown dramatically in the
past 7 years especially.2
______________________________________
12008 = 15,000 members
2 1997= 1 chapter; 2001 = 2 chapters, 2005=8 chapters; 2009=22
chapters; 2012=34 chapters
5. Everyday, through board
leadership, offline
programming, and social
media, we are living out
our basic mission:
6. To promote an
efficient, viable and
inclusive nonprofit sector
that supports the
growth, learning, and
development of young
professionals.
7. And we’ve grown not only
in the number and type of
support we provide, but in
the sophistication of that
support.
8. In addition to providing
practical professional
development workshops
and regular networking
events, over the past
several years, our chapters
have begun to provide*:
(*examples – we know you’re doing lots of amazing stuff that we’re
missing!)
10. Mentoring programs that
connect emerging and
seasoned professionals in
the sector*
(*YNPN Pittsburgh!)
11. Insightful blog posts that
encourage us to think
critically about our role in
the sector*
(*YNPN Twin Cities!)
12. Community-wide awards
ceremonies that celebrate
the critical contributions of
local leaders*
(*YNPN Grand Rapids! YNPN Phoenix!)
13. Partnerships with the likes
of CompassPoint & the
White House Office of
Public Engagement that
amplify the voice &
visibility of YNPs*
(*YNPN SFBA! YNPN DC!)
14. 2, 3 and 5 year strategic
plans for leveraging
resources and increasing
chapter impact*
(*WAY too many of you to name. You know who
you are and we salute you!)
15. So, as we move into
2012, we have much, much
to be proud of as an
organization. In many
ways, YNPN has arrived.
16. The sector is awake to the
importance of building
sustainable careers in the
sector and YNPN’s critical
role.*
(*YNPN named Top 10 organizations to watch in
2012; YNPN at the table for the White House
Forum on Nonprofit Careers.)
17. More importantly, the time
for our model has also
arrived.
Beyond the sector , the
world has finally awakened
to a powerful idea.
18. The idea that you can put a
basic framework around a
space, allow people to
bring their best selves to
that space, and they will
create something far more
incredible than any one
person could have
imagined.
19. Examples of these
open, leader-full spaces
include Wikipedia and the
App Store online and the
2004 Dean Campaign and
Occupy Wall Street offline.
20. YNPN has been on the
cutting edge of this idea –
operating with this ethos
for our entire 15 year
history.
21. As a result, YNPN has
become more than a space
for young people to build
sustainable careers in the
sector…
22. …it is a place where
untapped leaders are
awakened to their agency
and given the chance to
exercise their leadership
muscles.
23. YNPN 3.0 is about
strengthening our network
infrastructure and
deepening relationships
across the network so
these critical opportunities
are more accessible to a
greater number and more
diverse range of people.
24. Why YNPN 3.0?
Because we believe that
YNPN is entering its 3rd
major era in the 15-year
history of the organization.
25. Our growth during each of
our previous eras is marked
by distinct moments where
we made the choice to
think as a network and
invest in infrastructure.

future
43. Project #1: Developing
Shared Standards
Developing a set of shared standards will
allow us to name the essence of what it
means to be a chapter in our network
and determine what supports and
systems of accountability we’ll need to
uphold these standards.
44. Project #2: Creating a Data
Center
Together, we’ll come up with a system for
collecting and aggregating chapter level
data that will create a cohesive story
about YNPN, our chapters, our
membership, and our collective impact.
45. Project #3: Setting up
chapter input & decision-
making structures
This project will focus on creating a
system of feedback and joint decision
making for YNPN National and YNPN
chapters that will create a stronger
network that effectively engages the
talent and perspective of all leaders.
46. Chapter Congress [beta]:
Proposals will be developed in these
three areas and decided on between now
and August by members of our first-ever
Chapter Congress – a “beta version” of
the chapter input & decision making
model .
There will be many opportunities and
decisions in the coming years that will
affect the direction of the network. In
the short-term, the Chapter Congress will
provide a clear way of hearing your ideas
and implementing decisions across the
network.
47. Chapter Congress [beta]:
Your chapter’s involvement is critical to
the success of this process. We are
hoping that each chapter will select a
Chapter Representative for the Congress
and that we achieve 100% participation
across the network.

incredible moment for the Young
Nonprofit Professionals
Network!

Notas do Editor
Here’s what I see. This is really our time.People understand the need for sustainable careers in the sector and supporting emerging talent. You guys saw the post in the Chronicle, you’ve heard me talk about the fact that we’re getting invited to be a part of these high level conversations led by the current admnistration and leaders throughout the sector about how to build a pipeline for nonprofit talent. Beyond the sector context, I think the time for our model has really arrived as well. If you think about it, the YNPN Network was really on the cutting edge of this idea of distributed leadership. This idea that you could put some basic parameters around a space, allow people to bring their best selves to that space and they’ll create something far more amazing than I or Bill Tucker or any one person could have come up with. I mean now with the proliferation of online spaces like Wikipedia or the app store or offline movements that we’ve seen from the time of the Dean Campaign to Occupy Wall Street, the world is finally awake to the power of open, leaderfull spaces that unite under a common goal. But it’s cool to think that YNPN has been operating this way for all of our 15 years
