Building Global Bonds The One Voice Conferences are designed to optimize learning, bonding, understanding, and communication, in every way, right down to the seating arrangements in session meeting spaces. Humans connect best through face-to-face interactions in which eye contact is made. That is why seating arrangements for most One Voice sessions are designed on the basis of semi-circles or circles of seats that facilitate eye contact between speaker and audience and audience members with one another. Pre- and Post-conference Online Dialogue Special arrangements have been made to enhance the bonds of communication, partnership, networking and teamwork at the heart of One Voice. For this conference, The Institute has partnered with Colleague Connect, a great new service offering interest matching and discussion forums for all One Voice attendees. Given the international nature of the event, this service is a great supplement to the conference platform. With Colleague Connect, attendees can select their interests and get matched up with other conference-goers who listed similar interests. Discussion boards provide an outlet for communication with other attendees about the conference, topics brought up by presenters, things to do while there, or a place to socialize with other attendees. To access this capability, visit www.colleague-connect.com/ieee (click logo above). When registering, the conference code you will need to enter is: 1voicejuly. This is a great opportunity to meet other conference goers and further discussion with them. The conference may be months away, but discussions will be starting in various forums. Take a look at the site and register to take full advantage of all its benefits. |
