We are so excited to have kicked off the SWE-San Diego fiscal year last week with our annual (but first ever virtual) Open House! Thank you to the 114 attendees that participated and congratulations to our raffle winners Rachelle Dumaguing, Lyann Castillo, and Jenna Maxwell! It was a joy to share with you all about the Society of Women Engineers, elaborate on ways you could get involved, and answer your questions. We hope you found it insightful and that it ignited an appetite to engage with SWE-SD throughout the year. If you attended, you should be receiving a feedback survey soon.
The slides that were presented are posted above; if you have any questions about next steps or any of the content, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to learn from you how we can make FY21 absolutely amazing! Please consider sharing your ideas with us via this Member Feedback survey.
Many of the attendees expressed interest during our breakout sessions or through social media in joining a committee(s). We are very excited to start working alongside you! If you have not done so already, please fill out this Committee Interest survey so we can connect with you, answer any questions, and discuss next steps. SWE- San Diego wants to hear from YOU!
We have two surveys that are up and running with two different goals in mind.
Please join SWE-San Diego at our annual (and first ever virtual) Open House! We encourage you to come with your favorite cocktail or mocktail as you learn what SWE-San Diego is about and how you can get involved. Committee chat rooms will provide information and volunteer opportunities on our upcoming professional development, social, and outreach events.
We will also be hosting a networking chat room where you can get to know other SWE-SD members. There will be a raffle at the end of the event for those in attendance, so you will not want to miss out!

Join us from the comfort of your home, with you favorite glass of wine for our Wine Webinar!
Global and dispersed teams come with unique challenges. Yet they also offer broad functional expertise and the benefits of vast, international diversity. How can you distinguish your performance as a member or leader of these teams? In this session, you'll learn behavioral Do's and Don'ts that can either foster or corrode a culture of collaboration and trust - and strategies to help you reduce "social distance." You'll learn to set the example by structuring meeting inclusively and steering your team's collective focus toward objectives. Learning Objectives: - Recognize vulnerabilities specific to remote teams. - Describe how to build-in deliberate moments of social cohesion and create bonding even when teams are not collocated. - Redirect team discussion and participation - or a lack thereof - toward shared goals. 
*Must register to attend. Registration closes May 12th. We will send an email 1 day prior to the event to those that registered with the login details.
