ECH Leadership Seminar: On Saturday, February 27th, four Younger members went to a Leadership seminar put on for several local engineering societies. The event was held at the new Houston Natural Science Museum in Sugarland. We helped share ideas on what we think young engineers want and also developed ways that all of the societies can work together effectively. Supercharge Your Career: On Thursday, February 25th, five Younger Members made a trip down to the Houston Space Center for a Leadership Seminar on “Launching a Leadership Revolution.” Randy Lovell, who is a professional leadership Trainer, spoke about the five levels of leadership and developing new project managers.

September 2009 President's Message

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:41:22 GMT

We had another excellent August joint meeting with the Houston Contractors Association (HCA). Mayor Bill White delivered a very informative discussion on the local economy, the outlook for infrastructure spending, and the debate surrounding the use of tax incentive reinvestment zones (TIRZs). Connard Barker, president of HCA, and Brian Manning, P.E. did a great job organizing and leading the meeting. Through Brian’s efforts, our HCA-ASCE joint meeting has become a great summer tradition. September marks a new beginning for the Houston Branch. At our upcoming branch meeting, we will recognize our outgoing officers and committee chairs, and install our new branch leadership. I’m confident that the branch will achieve great things under the direction of its new president, Andrea Cheng Ranft, P.E. Andrea’s many years of involvement with ASCE and her leadership experience will guide us well in the coming year. Moreover, she’ll be assisted by an outstanding group of board officers...
