SIG Group’s Post

Building Bridges: Cheers to Our Engineering Services team It is amazing to finally meet everyone in our Engineering Services group face-to-face here in Saskatoon. There's something special about getting together in person that just can't be replicated over emails and teams calls. A big shout-out to Michelle Clark and Peter Ionica – thanks for hopping provinces to join us here. Rupinder Arora & Olivia DeRosier, thanks for making that drive up from Regina. It’s these little things that really show the strength and commitment of our team. I’ve been thinking about how much we've grown this past year, not just in numbers but as a close-knit team. It’s not always easy, especially for us engineers who might find it more comfortable dealing with computers than with chit-chat. But look at us! We’re not just a bunch of introverts; we’re a team full of quiet leaders, each bringing something unique to the table! This year, we’ve all shown what it means to come together, combining our different skills and personalities to achieve some pretty awesome stuff. Thank you all for making this year a memorable one! Here’s to many more successes, coffee breaks, and impromptu gatherings! As we look ahead, I’m excited about what’s next for us, and I can’t wait to see where we go from here. #Team #leadership #engineers #training

Join IEEE Region 4 WIE (Women in Engineering) and Slingshot25 for "Stop Killing Accountability!" on September 14, 2023, at 5:30 p.m. CT. The word accountability is used so often, it's lost its meaning. It takes real leadership skills to hold people accountable. And sadly, many of the behaviors that we believe will drive accountability down. In this talk, we will explore what it takes to drive accountability and stop doing the things that kill it.

What an incredible day talking to engineering leaders from across Europe! 🤩 This was the first time giving my new presentation: "Empowering Junior Engineers for Technical Leaders" and the response was amazing! I had junior engineers approaching me thanking me for giving leaders tips that will actually help them 🫡 I had senior engineers laughing at how some of my jokes reminded them of their time as juniors and will help them with mentoring 🥳 Best of all: I had probably half a dozen engineering managers from some of Berlin's biggest brands telling me that I gave them ideas and reminders for how to be good leaders and empower their team. ❤️ Thank you to everyone who heard my talk, gave me their feedback, and let me be a weirdo on stage with your incredible support 🫶 A special thank you to the organisers at WeAreXena and Ivanna Gomez; and of course to Sérgio Laranjeira and Oleksii Ishchenko for being part of our panel on "Practical Steps for Change" to actually get more women and historically excluded engineers into leadership positions. I'll be posting more about the content of this panel and my presentation in the coming days/weeks: so if you missed the event DON'T WORRY, I gotchu! 💪 The fun doesn't stop there either: tomorrow is the Xena Women in Tech Awards, also sponsored by Axel Springer National Media & Tech GmbH & Co. KG. #womenintech #techleadership #engineeringmanagement #xenasummit

The European Commission recently unveiled its strategy for EU industrial leadership in #advanced #materials, crucial for the #green and #digital transitions. Key highlights: 1. Strengthening the European research & innovation ecosystem. 2. Fast-tracking innovative materials to market with a European digital infrastructure. 3. Increasing capital investment and access to financing, aiming for €500 million by 2027. 4. Fostering the production and use of advanced materials. This includes procurement for innovation, standard setting and the launch of an Advanced Materials Academy with the European Institute of Innovation and Technology to make sure European workforce has the necessary skills. 5. Establishing a Technology Council for ongoing guidance and collaboration. Personally, I am so happy to see this gain priority. I have been trying to raise awareness of this issue for years, and the time has finally come! Thank you for all involved in making this happen! It gives many of us working with advanced materials and systems the needed support, that often fell short when pinned against other industrial processes and (high volume, low value) products. #AdvancedMaterials #Innovation #EULeadership Marja Vilkman Patrice Rannou Julie Ellilä Lula Rosso Ropponen Jarmo Inka Orko Petri Kukkonen Tua Huomo Tekla Tammelin Ali Harlin Atte Virtanen Merja Penttilä Tiina Nakari-Setälä Michael Healy-Rehn Katariina Torvinen Tom Granström

Well said, Javier Fernandez, from a CEO who inspires leadership at Omaha Public Power District. I can personally and professionally testify to the benefits of the ICAN impact in my #leadership journey. If you are interested in taking your #leadershipdevelopment to an empathetic, authentic, and courageous level then look into Aileen Warren and the ICAN team. #OPPDShares because #OPPDCares about leaders of people.
