Held on April 30, the 16th Annual IEEE ProCon Conference was an excellent opportunity to improve your professional qualities and skills. The Cedar Rapids section of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) hosts this annual conference at the Cedar Rapids Marriot. This year’s conference included two tracks: Project Management and Leadership Development.
The Project Management track was led by Don Gallagher. His sessions were “Outstanding Engineering Leadership… It’s a Conversational Phenomenon” and “Remarkable Projects Happen Through People.” His sessions focused on how clear communication and relationships help make projects successful.
The Leadership Development track was led by Gale Mote. Her first session focused on “Accountability without Blame,” participants discovered ways to hold each other accountable to make a successful project. The second session was “The Happiness Advantage,” participants learned simple steps to a happier life at home and at work.
In between the sessions participants learned how to take charge of their career with the Career Fit Model from Dick Reasons of Career Resources Group at Lee Hect Harrision.
All of the sessions were well done and provide very helpful advice for all professionals.
