Get Involved: Try Some Old School Social Networking [Leader´s Corner]

It is suggested that if you haven´t attended a PES chapter meeting lately or at all, to give it try. Consider sending topics of interest to your local Chapter leadership. Offer to provide a speaker from your company to discuss a pressing topic or recent development. But what if there is not a local PES Chapter in your area and you would like to have an opportunity to network with power and energy professionals and participate in some of the above listed activities close to home? Consider pulling together some technical colleagues and creating a local PES Chapter. Information on creating a new PES Chapter is available through the following link http://www.ieee.org/ portal/pages/tab/cha/newchap.html or by contacting the PES VP for Chapters or your Regiona l representatives (http:// www.ieee-pes.org/chapters/contacts/ pes-chapters-organization).
