SUMMARY:MAL FY26 May Event: Beyond the Pipeline: Redefining Success\, Values\, and Career Pathways in STEMM with Cassie Leonard
DESCRIPTION:Many women in engineering reach a point where\, on paper\, everything looks right\, yet something still feels off. The role is prestigious. The trajectory makes sense. The expectations have been met. And yet the sense of fulfillment does not always follow. \nIn this interactive session\, we will explore why success can feel misaligned for high-performing women in STEMM and what you can do about it. Drawing on her experience as an aerospace engineer\, executive coach\, and author\, Cassie Leonard blends personal stories with evidence-based models to help participants recognize common sources of friction in technical workplaces and develop language for naming them. Together\, we will reflect on how definitions of success evolve over time and consider practical\, sustainable ways to navigate careers with greater clarity\, alignment\, and longevity. \nYou will leave with language and practical frameworks to better understand misalignment\, redefine success on your own terms\, and navigate your career with greater intention. \nSpeaker Bio:\nCASSIE LEONARD (she/her) is an engineer\, twotime bestselling author\, and dedicated working parent with 19 years of experience in technical leadership and executive coaching. Through her company\, ELMM (Engineers\, Leaders\, Moms\, and Mentors)\, she helps working parents and allies in STEMM grow fearlessly\, connect wholeheartedly\, and design careers that actually work.\nAerospace is at her roots. With degrees from UCLA and the University of Sheffeld\, she spent 16 years climbing the corporate ladder from entry-level analyst to Senior Aircraft Integration Leader. Today\, she pairs that technical grit with mom skills to help clients reverse-engineer their own version of success.\nAs Editor and Lead Author of Beyond the Pipeline: Redefining Value\, Success\, and the Future of Women in STEMM — Together\, Cassie collaborated with women and allies worldwide to create an insightful\, practical\, and action-oriented exploration of today’s technical workplaces. Beyond the Pipeline has been an international bestseller since its launch in August 2025. Her first book\, STEM Moms: Design\, Build\, and Test to Create the Work-Life of Your Dreams\, launched her into this global conversation with stories and solutions for solving the partial differential equations of life as a mother in a male-dominated industry.\nHome is in the Pacific Northwest\, where she lives with her husband Patrick and two sons. When she’s not coaching or writing\, you’ll Ϯnd her on the sand with a volleyball\, on a mountain bike trail\, or exploring the wilderness with friends on cross-country skis.\nConnect with Cassie\nELMMcoaching.com or Cassie-Leonard on Linkedin

SUMMARY:ECP AG: Debunking Engineering Myths
DESCRIPTION:The SWE Early Career Professionals Affinity Group cordially invites you to our upcoming virtual event\, “Debunking Engineering Myths” on Tuesday\, May 12\, 2026 at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT! \nDuring this panel discussion\, we intend to take an honest look at some common assumptions about engineering careers and provide early career professionals with honest\, real-world perspectives from experienced engineers. This panel session will feature industry experts from different industries and SWE groups\, including: Hang Loi\, Jennifer Braganza\, and Tracy White. We will discuss the myth “Engineers Don’t Need Business Acumen”. This panel discussion will challenge the idea that engineering is only about technical skills. Through real experiences\, panelists will share how understanding the business side can shape career growth and open up new opportunities. This session is designed to help early-career professionals start thinking beyond the technical and build a more well-rounded approach to their careers. \nBoth Students and Professionals are encouraged to attend! \nMeeting details will be provided after completing the registration.

DESCRIPTION:AI adoption is accelerating\, but without the right systems in place\, real impact remains out of reach. \nJoin us for the next session in our Monthly Webinar Series with Afrina Alam\, Thought Leader at IBM Asset Engineering. With over two decades of experience leading enterprise-scale engineering programs across hybrid cloud\, analytics\, and automation\, she brings a practitioner’s understanding of what it takes to make complex systems work. Backed by multiple patents and her credentials as a Level 3 Open Group Certified Architect\, her work sits at the intersection of architecture\, innovation\, and real-world AI implementation\, making this conversation especially relevant for anyone looking beyond surface-level adoption. \nIn her session\, “Everyone is Adding AI. But Systems Aren’t Designed for It. What Must Change to Make AI Really Work\,” she will unpack what organizations need to rethink to move beyond surface-level AI adoption and build systems that can truly support and scale it. \nIf you’re working at the intersection of technology and AI\, this is a perspective you don’t want to miss.
