What they found is that people wanted to continue with the group\u2019s networking events and speakers, but were confused by its name and felt the group needed a clearer mission statement.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Young Professionals @ UCHealth, formerly the Young Professionals Affinity Group, has homed in on its purpose: engage, develop and connect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to meet the individuals where they are in their career, make it convenient for them to be involved, and help them realize the benefits of networking,\u201d said Courtney Hoffbauer, Young Professionals @ UCHealth steering committee member from UCHealth Colorado Springs.<\/p>\n<p>The grassroots group kicked off in October 2014 with a system-wide event at the Anschutz Inpatient Pavilion at UCHealth Metro Denver. The meeting included UCHealth\u2019s newly hired president and CEO Liz Concordia. Throughout the year, the group held many other events, both system-wide and regionally, that included speakers and social networking opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to continue to support UCHealth\u2019s young professionals through networking and professional development but make sure we improve upon our first year,\u201d said Jill Zamzow, steering committee member from UCHealth Northern Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>The group has set guidelines that provide flexibility among the three regional chapters but still maintain an overall unified purpose. There will be one system-wide event held each year, and each chapter is required to do at least six regional events annually.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt Memorial, the biggest thing we heard from our members was that they wanted to be able to network, so we set up our events around that idea,\u201d Hoffbauer said. Event ideas her chapter discussed included a speaker who focused on maximizing millennials in the workplace, happy hours and volunteer opportunities with the Special Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>The Northern Colorado chapter also is focusing on volunteer opportunities, as well as additional ways to connect to the community, such as outreach to other young professional groups, said Chris Lowe, steering committee member from Northern Colorado. The group will continue to forward emails that offer up volunteer opportunities or seats at UCHealth-sponsored community events.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to get UCHealth out of our doors and into the community,\u201d he said. \u201cCommunity service is another way to connect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Northern Colorado group also will continue to have socials and guest speakers, as will the Metro Denver chapter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe really tried to put the young professionals of UCHealth in the center of everything we do,\u201d said Mallory Thompson, steering committee member from Metro Denver. \u201cHere we found that people liked the frequent informal happy hour networking events, so we\u2019ve been doing those lately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is still more to come, she added. The committee will continue to gather input and develop its program based on what works best for members, and they encourage others to join so they too can benefit professionally.<\/p>\n<p>The Young Professionals @ UCHealth has an informal membership, with no fees or commitment required. However, there are opportunities for even more involvement than attending events, such as leading an initiative or program area within the group. Group events are open to both clinical and nonclinical employees, and there is no age cap. The \u201cyoung\u201d in its title means that members are looking to develop their skills, networking connections, and knowledge within their profession.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact a steering committee member in your region:<br \/>\nNorthern Colorado: Jill Zamzow, Tyler Trum and Chris Lowe<br \/>\nMetro Denver: Mallory Thompson and Mandy Ellefson<br \/>\nColorado Springs: Kitso Branch and Courtney Hoffbauer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UCHealth\u2019s young professionals\u2019 group continues to help employees grow in their jobs, but in its second year, it\u2019s rebranding.
