IEEE Inspiring Leaders

The activity “IEEE Inspiring Leaders”, seeks to bring IEEE leaders closer to student and Young Professional IEEE members, in order to motivate and inspire them.

 

The activity consists of an open interview-discussion, in which the panelists and other IEEE members will be asked about different aspects of their professional life and their experience in IEEE. In this manner, the event attempts to gain an insight into who are the leaders of IEEE.

 

 

The activity focuses on the human side of our participants, so it will not be a technical presentation. Therefore, no preparation for the activity is expected to be required. Just the will to have fun and have a relaxed conversation with other fellow IEEE members.

 

The activity will take place on Saturday 12 before lunch, in a slot specifically assigned to it (i.e. it will not collide with the R8 meeting).
