Abstract :
My team in the IEEE Member and Geographic Activities Department is charged with providing a worldclass membership experience delivered through the direct support of our individual Members, Student Branches, volunteer leadership, competitions, programs, products, and services. The member experience is also enhanced through the IEEE Young Professionals (YP) special interest group, which was formerly known as GOLD. This group represents an expanding network of early career Members and seeks to raise their collective profile, visibility, and influence in academia, industry, and throughout IEEE.
