1. Member & Geographic Activities: 2015 Goals & Directions Wai-Choong (Lawrence) Wong Vice President, Member & Geographic Activities IEEE R10 Meeting 7 – 8 March 2015

2. MGA Mission & Vision Vision:Ensure Quality Member Opportunities Through Continuous Engagement Mission: I nspire, E nable, E mpower and E ngage Members of IEEE For the purpose of… - Fulfilling the mission of IEEE - Enhancing the member’s growth and development through their life cycle -Providing a professional home 2

3. MGA Winning Aspiration 33/3/2016 Ensure Quality Member Opportunities Through Continuous Engagement 1.Delivering an exceptional membership experience (50% or more of members rating as IEEE membership “top box” or "very satisfied") 2.Expanding IEEE's global membership presence. 3.Developing and supporting a positive professional development experience for volunteers who deliver the IEEE experience.

4. Challenges IEEE breadth of activities is wide, but may lack cohesiveness OUs have their own strategies but may lack common alignment Value to Young Professionals & “Practitioners” is elusive Overall membership growth is positive but not for all segments Membership retention for certain segments is problematic Strong volunteerism but variable quality MGA needs to respond to these challenges –Increase cooperation and collaboration –Better understanding of the needs of Young Professionals and “Practitioners” and to reach out to them –Strengthen volunteer capabilities and enhance experience  Better local visibility & relevance 3/3/20164
