IEEE Metro Los Angeles Communications Chapter

Are you setting the vision for your section, chapter, or affinity group? Do you wonder what success looks like for your section, chapter, affinity group, or members? This can be very different based on situations. We’ll take a high level look at what success looks like and then discuss different ways to engage your membership. We will also cover how to recruit volunteers and help them succeed. If this time does not work for you, there is (https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/510146).

[] Mark your calendars! The Regions 4 and 6 joint operating committee (Opcom) meeting is happening again! We're busy working out the details. This year we're focussing on making it more interactive so that everyone can make the most of being in person. To support this we moved some of the lecture-style presentations to online meetings leading up to the Opcom. These sessions are not just for attendees, but also section, chapter, or affinity group volunteers or those interested in volunteering in IEEE. We have two sessions for each topic to make the training more available to volunteers. IEEE Basics is designed to get new volunteers up and running quickly, connecting you with tools and people to help you succeed. Events is all about bringing people together successfully, be it for lecture, workshop, conferences, outreach, or family events. The vitality sessions are there to help you look at your membership, how they can be served, and how to strengthen your organization's volunteers.
