          2020 was a significant challenge for all Regions, as Regional Director I lead a team that quickly adapted to the virtual environment and delivered significant member benefits in the form of training sessions, talks and conferences. We cooperated with Industry and Academia in these programs, and reached a wide audience to include other Regions. As an MGA Director I have led discussions associated with the IEEE Regional restructure. As IEEE-USA Director I have pushed for establishing a sustainable model to allow IEEE-USA to succeed and grow.<\/p>\n

          As MELCC Chair, MELCC was able to instill processes that moved SAC, YP and WIE towards a data driven process that linked program and initiatives to direct member satisfaction gaps and needs. The 2008\/09 Strategic Direction Committee established a Balanced Scorecard process that moved MGA Strategy to MGA programs and initiatives by using \u201cI, as a member of the IEEE\u2026\u201d to express our envisioned future and drive our actions. The 2004\/05 Student Activities committee established the IEEEXtreme 24-hour Programming competition, now an extremely successful Institute wide event. Lastly, during my term on the ELECTRO BoD, we brought to a close a show that was neither member focused nor financially viable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":221,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-54009","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nEduardo \u201cEd\u201d F.
