Young Leaders Group: Building the Future

The California Self Storage Association’s Young Leaders Group (YLG) empowers emerging professionals to connect, learn, and grow within the self storage industry. Designed for those early in their careers, or looking to expand their network—YLG offers practical resources, peer engagement, and professional development opportunities.

Recently, YLG hosted its first successful webinar on maximizing networking opportunities. Attendees gained strategies for building meaningful connections, increasing visibility, and leveraging relationships for career growth. The session was a hit, highlighting the value of targeted, practical learning for emerging leaders.

Looking ahead, YLG will host a lunch session at the 2026 Napa Self Storage Owner’s Conference, providing a unique in-person opportunity to meet peers, share insights, and build relationships. Members are encouraged to register for the Napa Conference to secure their spot in this exclusive session:

Whether online or in-person, YLG creates a supportive environment where emerging professionals can learn, network, and thrive—preparing the next generation of leaders to shape the future of the industry.
