To: Region 3 Executive Committee Cc: Region 3 Section Chairs From: LDO Project Team Subject: LDO Project Report for January 2006 ExCom Meeting As stated in my last report to the ExCom, the LDO Project is now in Phase 2 which is intended to extend the LDO principles and concepts to all Region 3 Area/Councils and Sections. On December 3, 2005 members of LDO team: Dave Green, Bill Ratcliff, and Charles Lord held a workshop with member/volunteers of the Atlanta Section and of the associated chapters of Technical Societies. Bill Marshall, the Atlanta Section Chair for 2005, was most kind in organizing the meeting and the logistics and providing time in their workshop for LDO. For additional information on this LDO workshop see the article "Leadership By Developing Others goes to Atlanta" in the January 2006 Issue of the Region 3 Newsletter. The Atlanta Workshop was the first in a series to begin the process of introducing the Principles of LDO where the maximum benefit can be derived within the local Section. LDO is primarily aimed at developing an active membership because the member is IEEE. Contact a member of the LDO Team if you are interested in arranging an LDO workshop for your Section/Chapter.
