Manage episode 424722140 series 3191623
In the last few decades, plenty of Louisvillians have made their way through the ranks of Young Professionals Association of Louisville.
But have you ever wondered how that organization got its start?
As YPAL approaches its 25th anniversary, we sit down with its founders Cynthia Knapek, president of the Leadership Louisville Center; and Christy Ames, general counsel and EVP at Republic Bank & Trust Co.
The two tell us how they were each looking for ways to connect with other professionals and with the leadership in the city at the time. They wanted to build something that lasted too — though they each admit they weren't thinking 25 years into the future back when they founded the organization.
