M G A was born on 01/01/08


RA >>>> MGA - Why Change?

Over the past several years we have lost the focus on the member – no one to blame, it just happened

If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got

Our world is changing and we must change with it to properly serve the members of the future


RA >>>> MGA - A Change of Focus

Regional Activities Primary Focus Geographic Units Operation to Serve the

Volunteer, Member, Students, Profession, Public

Member and Geographic Activities Primary Focus

Help the member grow and develop for themselves, for the Institute and to serve the common good throughout their life cycle and their various roles. The Geographic Unit is one of the primary means to these ends.


Current Transition Status

The MGA Board is in place and engaged The MGA Vice Chairs have been elected

and are engaged New committees have been formed and

committee members are in place Required processes are being developed Tools for use at the Section level are being

designed and tested A lot of additional work is still required


Member and Geographic ActivitiesHow Do You Say It?

M – G – A (Use the three letters)

MGA Board - the governing body

MGA Department - the staff department at HQ

MGA - the team of volunteers and staff leading the effort


MGA Vision and MissionVisionEnsure Quality Member Opportunities for Continuous

Engagement

Mission

Guiding Principles The Member is IEEE and IEEE is the Member Membership is a core value of IEEE. Members shape IEEE's future. Members collaborate to create IEEE's future. IEEE enhances members' future.
