FYI, Free e-books for IEEE members in July and up-coming Aug.

*******************************************************************************************************

As a special benefit to IEEE members in July, IEEE-USA is offering a free e-book, "Personal Positioning for Engineers." In August, the gratis e-book will be "Technical Presentations, Book 1: Strategy, Preparation and Planning." 

In "Personal Positioning for Engineers" you will learn about employment options available to engineers and how to position yourself for success by choosing the right ones. The author, Paul Kostek, writes that, "The key to succeeding is to understand yourself, how you respond to change, and what level of risk you can deal with." 

"Personal Positioning for Engineers" can be downloaded at http://www.ieeeusa.org/communications/ebooks/files/29vn2lcks/Personal_Positioning_for_Engineers.pdf for free to IEEE members. The nonmember price is $5.99. 

In "Technical Presentations, Book 1: Strategy, Preparation and Planning," you will learn how to better present technical information to a broad spectrum of individuals, including co-workers, executives and potential clients in a variety of formats -- such as conference papers, training materials and funding proposals. Even if you do not present papers or make other formal presentations, you must present your ideas and opinions daily in a clear and concise manner. Without a strategy and appropriate preparation, a presentation will be unfocused, not apply or fail completely.   

"Technical Presentations, Book 1" of a four-part series, outlines a framework to help you prepare for your next presentation. It will be available to members for free download in August. 

To purchase IEEE member-only products and to receive the member discount on eligible products, members must log in with their IEEE Web Account.
