Technology is making work less and less personal, while the role of human capital grows more critical. Employees are facing new problems, and employers are still playing catch-up on diversity, inclusion, attracting talent, and supporting employees outside of work hours. Modern organizations are struggling at every level and in every department to focus more on the people that work there, even as they recognize the growing need and prioritize it. The Unorthodox Manager introduces a wide-ranging managerial approach that will arm readers with outside-the-box principles that enable “boots on the ground” managers to build their own best methods given any circumstances, rather than strictly following corporate policies. Through this webinar, IEEE Member and author Dan Clein, will provide an overview of the “(https://www.theunorthodoxmanager.com/)" while sharing personal stories, lessons and secrets of managing modern multicultural teams that get things done. https://www.theunorthodoxmanager.com/ Speaker(s): Dan Clein, Agenda: - Livestream links: - YouTube: https://bit.ly/webinar-11-10-21-yt - Facebook: https://bit.ly/webinar-11-10-21-fb - LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/webinar-11-10-21-li --------------------------------------------------------------- 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.

FREE IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar Creativity is often considered the core of engineering because it is from creativity that we devise unique solutions to society’s challenges. LinkedIn’s Learning study ranked creativity #1 in its poll of critical job skills. Some engineers may feel, however, that they are not the “creative types.” As we’ll learn in this webinar there are many ways to enhance one’s innate creativity. Creativity is indeed within us all and simply needs activation to overcome a long held belief that we are otherwise. In this webinar, Sridhar Ramanathan takes a deeper look at creativity and how we might enhance this capability that is so critical to engineering. He will provide practical tips in areas such as cognitive flexibility, curiosity, visualization, imagination, and more.

“Where Students and Young Professionals Come to Connect and be Inspired" As a premier event, IEEE Rising Stars Global is designed to inform, excite, enthuse, and enlighten the top engineering young professionals and students. The conference brings together the most promising students and young professionals around the world to network and is inspired by each other. The program includes interactive events, competitions, technical innovation talks from industry experts, networking opportunities and professional development. The Rising Stars event consists of two tracks. One focuses on bringing together technical professionals who are experts in emerging technologies including autonomous vehicles, space, and manufacturing, cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, security, and IoT. The Professional track consists of technical professionals who come to enlighten and inspire attendees to succeed in an ever-changing job environment and on how to develop as leaders in their respective fields. The IEEE Rising Stars Global conference provides direction and perspective to performing young professionals and students. Attendees at the event will gain insight on how best to further their careers by networking and learning from industry professionals and executives from leading international companies. Rising Stars Global attendees will leave the event with better preparation to face the challenges presented to them and armed with the appropriate contacts needed to gain the insight to be successful. The Next Big Thing panel is the capstone session of the conference. It’s an opportunity for panel members to gaze into their crystal balls and explore what’s next in their company, their industry, or their market segment. Comments can address specific emerging technologies in the field, initiatives, or programs their company is planning. Their crystal ball can be limited to a few years, based on the speed of change in their industry. The second portion of their forecast represents a discussion of the skills needed to succeed in their industry or, specifically, in their company. That skillset can be a mix of both technical and professional skills. - Event website: https://ieee-risingstars.org/2022/ Discounted hotel rates expire on December 1, 2021 - Click (https://book.passkey.com/go/IEEERisingStars2022) to book your Hotel today (https://book.passkey.com/go/IEEERisingStars2022) Tropicana Las Vegas – a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Resort, 3801 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, 89109, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/294944
