Dear Friends and
Colleagues,
I have been selected by the IEEE Board of Directors, to be a candidate,
in the upcoming election, for the position of 2011 IEEE President.
Throughout my twenty plus years IEEE volunteer career, I have always
given priority to enhancing the quality of services provided to
members as well as to keeping the costs of these services under
control. I have always been a strong opponent of unnecessary fees
and dues increases. I am presently extremely concerned with the
steady rise in IEEE′s infrastructure expenses which make it
difficult to offer new benefits to members/volunteers and also threaten
the financial viability of some IEEE units.
In this web site you will find extended versions of my Position
Statement, my biographical sketch and my activities as an IEEE volunteer.
I welcome any questions you may have concerning my positions, comments
and criticisms to the current IEEE operations and suggestions of
issues you feel should be addressed in IEEE several bodies and,
in particular, at the IEEE Board of Directors.
I will be honored to receive your support in this election, just
as I received from a large number of you a couple years ago when
I was elected IEEE Vice President, Technical Activities. You can
rest assured that if elected IEEE President I will focus my attention
on increasing the value of IEEE membership, on increasing the attractiveness
of IEEE products and services to industries and their employees,
on providing the deserved recognition and a motivating environment
for volunteers and on protecting the IEEE quality and brand.
