Increasingly, organizations rely on individuals who can successfully lead and manage technical teams. Most engineers spend the majority of their careers in management, but lack the necessary education or training. Many find the transition from engineer to manager difficult and frustrating but it need not be. The solution is a program to quickly gain the necessary attitudes and skills.
Join IEEE GOLD for “Geek in the Lead: Growing from Engineer to Manager” and learn tips that you can apply immediately to be effective in management, and build a solid foundation for a successful and rewarding career as a leader.
