SIM by Todd and Daidre

Joint STEM Initiative

Professional societies have played important roles in various industries. They have been a critical force that set up best practices, standards, or certifications. In today’s ever changing environment, the professional societies remain critical but may need to adopt different approaches with different focuses. We witness some of them grow while some of them disappear. One thing for sure, the need for everyone to identify the best way to advance one’s career remains important as ever.

In this episode, we are going to highlight SIM, the Society of Information Management, which created the place for IT professionals to gather and exchange information. As Todd and Daidre pointed out it is a great network platform to help individuals to advance their career and do something good for the community at the same time. As Information Management, or Technology, exists in so many industries that creating a standard doesn’t seem to be the top priority for SIM, but creating the best leaders for sure to be one.

Todd and Daidre also pointed out, because of the focus on leadership development, SIM is finding ways to help disadvantaged groups, such as female professionals, to advance their career. Take listen and it may turn a few lightbulbs on how to reach out to find the mentors that could change your life.
