2024 IEEE Day Special IEEE-USA Livestream: An Illuminating Dialogue With Nobel Laureate & Visionary, Dr. Robert W. Wilson
2024 IEEE Day Special IEEE-USA Livestream: An Illuminating Dialogue With Nobel Laureate & Visionary, Dr. Robert W. Wilson
In this insightful presentation, IEEE Region 1 Director Bala Prasanna and IEEE Senior Member Dr. Kit August engage in a meaningful dialogue with one of the most esteemed figures of our time, Nobel Laureate Dr. Robert W. Wilson. At 87, Dr. Wilson remains an active and influential contributor to both technical fields and broader aspects of life. His groundbreaking discovery of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) 60 years ago continues to be a cornerstone of modern cosmology. In this candid and informal recording, Dr. Wilson, known for his soft-spoken, focused, and passionate demeanor, shares profound insights on a variety of topics. He reflects on the rapid changes occurring in the world and emphasizes the crucial responsibilities of leading research institutions. He advocates for supporting discoveries and inventions that may not provide immediate financial returns but are essential for long-term scientific progress. Dr. Wilson also addresses how today’s younger generations can harness the vast amount of information available to them, leveraging it to drive innovation and knowledge. He highlights the invaluable role of IEEE’s extensive library of technical journals, which serve as a vital resource for researchers and engineers worldwide. This presentation offers a rare glimpse into the mind of a scientific legend, providing valuable lessons on the importance of curiosity, perseverance, and the pursuit of knowledge. It is a testament to how dedicated individuals and institutions can shape a better tomorrow. #IEEEDay #IEEEDay2024 #cosmology #nobelprize Tune in to the livestream on IEEE-USA's YouTube channel on 1 October 2024 at 7PM ET: https://bit.ly/ieeeusa-ieee-day-2024 [] Speaker(s): Dr. Kit August, Bala Prasanna, Dr. Robert W.

IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Using Hybrid Work to Improve Retention and Productivity While Cutting Costs
IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Using Hybrid Work to Improve Retention and Productivity While Cutting Costs
This dynamic session uses case studies drawn from the IEEE community to help you dramatically improve your ability to use hybrid work as an instrument to improve retention and productivity while cutting costs. Many leaders rely on traditional office-centric collaboration and leadership styles in managing hybrid teams. Yet research conclusively demonstrates that, instead of incrementally improving on the old-school office-centric approach, the best outcomes in managing hybrid teams come from adopting a flexible hybrid-first work model. Doing so results in much higher retention and productivity, reduces costs, and boosts engagement, innovation, collaboration, and risk mitigation. Through adopting hybrid work best practices based on this training, you will empower yourself and your team to maximize retention, productivity, and cost savings in our increasingly-disrupted future of work.All attendees will have an opportunity to receive a complimentary copy of the speaker's best-selling book on which this talk is based, called Returning to the Office and Leading Hybrid and Remote Teams.Speaker(s): Dr. Gleb TsipurskyAgenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.For information regarding upcoming webinars or to visit our vast webinar archive, please visit: (https://ieeeusa.org/careers/webinars/)(https://newsletter.smartbrief.com/rest/sign-up/2479DAB0-4089-43E7-925D-86AE0C1E6244?campaign=e0d52cef)Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/427447

Women in Engineering: What would you do to secure your place in Industry 5.0?
Women in Engineering: What would you do to secure your place in Industry 5.0?
As we transition from the fourth industrial revolution to the fifth, the landscape of engineering and technology is evolving rapidly. Industry 5.0 heralds a new era where human creativity and intelligent technologies converge to deliver personalized, sustainable solutions. In this transformative phase, the contributions of women in engineering are not just beneficial but essential. In this talk, we will explore the critical role women play in this new industrial age. We will discuss the historical context of industrial revolutions and examine how the fourth industrial revolution brought us advancements like IoT, AI, and smart factories. Moving into Industry 5.0, we will see a shift towards human-machine collaboration, emphasizing sustainability, clean energy, and innovative materials. Studies have shown that gender-diverse leadership teams are more profitable, competitive, and better equipped to navigate complex challenges. Women excel in leadership qualities such as emotional intelligence, creative problem-solving, and inclusive team building, all of which are crucial in this new era. We will highlight the unique skills and perspectives that women bring to the table, which are pivotal for thriving in Industry 5.0. Through real-world examples and case studies, we will illustrate how women in engineering can harness their strengths to drive innovation and lead their organizations. We will also discuss actionable strategies for women to secure their place in Industry 5.0, including networking, championing inclusive technology, and leading with agility. Join us to explore how women can shape a future that is innovative, inclusive, and unstoppable. So, what will you do to secure your place in Industry 5.0?

IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Re-Entering the Workforce
This webinar is a collaboration between IEEE-USA Career & Member Services and IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE).Trying to re-enter the workforce after an extended absence presents challenges, and can be a daunting task. Changes have happened in the workplace and in technologies used. The atmosphere and expectations may have changed (for example, the impacts COVID had on remote work for many jobs!)You have changed… and self-doubt may have crept in after being away! However, preparing in advance is the key to easing the challenges.In this talk, you will hear about my own return to work after 12 years of minimal part-time employment in my field, and also information from my own research into what experts recommend. You will learn:- What is an extended absence (and the impact of how long “extended” is!)- Why it is important to prepare for returning- When to start preparing- How to prepare- Who to seek out for support / assistance- Where to look for opportunitiesSpeaker(s): Jill GostinAgenda: IEEE-USA's free webinars/events are designed to help you find your next job, maintain your career, negotiate an appropriate salary, understand ethical considerations in the workplace and learn about other career-building strategies and public policy developments that affect your profession.For information regarding upcoming webinars or to visit our vast webinar archive, please visit: (https://ieeeusa.org/careers/webinars/)(https://newsletter.smartbrief.com/rest/sign-up/2479DAB0-4089-43E7-925D-86AE0C1E6244?campaign=e0d52cef)Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/427453

SusTech Talk October 2024 – Net-Zero Procurement: Procuring a fix to climate change
SusTech Talk October 2024 – Net-Zero Procurement: Procuring a fix to climate change
“Net-Zero Procurement: Procuring a fix to climate change” with Bob Willard, Founder and Chief Sustainability Champion, Sustainability Advantage Date/Time: Tuesday October 29th, 6:00 – 7:00 pm PDT Abstract: We have a climate crisis. Governments’ pledges to reduce their countries’ GHG emissions are insufficient and unfulfilled. Most businesses are sitting on the sidelines waiting for governments to fix climate change. That won’t happen. Unless businesses set and meet science-based net-zero targets, the climate cannot be stabilized. Bob Willard will outline how we can unleash the buying power of governments / companies / organizations as a powerful market force that mobilizes businesses in the race to net-zero. Learning Objectives: By attending this webinar, you will learn: • What Net-Zero Procurement is, as a high priority subset of Sustainable Procurement • Why companies need to use it to reduce their supply chain’s GHGs • How a free, open-source toolkit enables any organization to smoothly integrate net-zero procurement elements into its current procurement system. • A Master Plan to globally deploy Net-Zero Procurement to fix the climate crisis Co-sponsored by: IEEE-USA, IEEE SSIT, IEEE IAS, IEEE OES, IEEE PES, IEEE TEMS, IEEE SA Speaker(s): , Bob Willard Agenda: 6:00 PM Introduction of Speaker 7:00 PM Adjourn Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/436870
