Bill Murray once said, “You’re supposed to have one hand up and one hand down. As you’re trying to go up, you’re trying to pull someone up at the same time.” This is exactly how I see the role of IEEE Young Professionals in the community today. Being given the honor of holding the Chair of IEEE YP Islamabad, the focus will be to create linkages between IEEE YP members and students at school and university level so that the upcoming generation is mentored by the best and can lead to entrepreneurs, innovators and industry leaders of tomorrow. To achieve this, YP members will be engaged to form a road-map for the next three years. Furthermore, Making IEEE YP membership more rewarding will be looked at and avenues to gather funding for the projects that are aligned with the road-map will be explored. While the upcoming challenges are daunting, I am thankful to previous Chairs who have created an ideal stepping stone with their hard work and devotion. Looking at the spirit and enthusiasm of IEEE YP members, I am certain that together, we will play our part to create a stronger community that will lead to a prosperous Pakistan.
