Hi everyone


I have recently gained my CEng and volunteered to be the industry representative at Gartner UK.  I was wondering if any of you could advise on an approach to kick starting my role within Gartner Consulting?


I was thinking of arranging some 'brown bag lunches/lunch and learn/drop-in sessions' for our consultants so that they can come and find out what the IET is all about.  To do this though I would need some marketing material (which I gather I can order) and probably a greater in-depth understanding of the IET offer.  Are there any individuals in the Egham, Surrey area that could assist in a small event or just meet with me to help steer me in the right direction?


To keep in line with the INSPIRE - INFORM - INFLUENCE moto, I believe my role is to do the following:

- INSPIRE: inform colleagues who the IET is; why they should join the IET; and the benefits of joining

- INFORM: inform colleagues of the application process and facilitate help from other volunteer colleauges who do this regularly

- INFLUENCE: help broaden opinion amongst the IT consultant community that being a member of the IET is a good thing!!


Anyone able to steer me in the right direction


Yours

An eager volunteer

    Welcome to the volunteer community. Your enthusiasm will be appreciated.  I think your overall approach is sound if you encourage conversations.  Informal meetings will help identify the level of interest and you can then develop further activity and support for questions that need more attention.  I can’t offer any local support but good luck with your efforts.  There’s plenty of support available.  I think there will be other volunteers who will be interested to hear of your progress. 

    Best wishes
