Best Practices for Running a Successful Local Consultants Network
An AICNCC Virtual Meeting
In early 2022 the Alliance of IEEE Consultants Networks Coordinating Committee (AICNCC) polled local consultant network chairs to find out the status of their local groups. What we learned is that many networks were having trouble restarting activities after having such a long layoff from in-person meetings. We also learned that many chairs have questions about activities of the AICNCC.
On September 28 at 1:00pm-2:00pm EDT the AICNCC is sponsoring a virtual workshop for local consultant network chairs. We’ve asked Brian Berg of the Consultants’ Network of Silicon Valley (CNSV) to give a presentation on the best practices for maintaining a healthy and vibrant local consultant network. Brian will be joined by Board members of the CNSV to have an interactive discussion about things they’ve done that have kept their local consultant network strong year after year.
After their presentation there will be a Q/A with the speakers and with members of the AICNCC. The speakers will address any questions you have regarding the presentation. The AICNCC members will address any questions about the committee's activities.
So, we invite all Chairs and other officers, as well as potential future Board members, to attend this online event.
This meeting will be recorded to be used as an on Demand resource
