Paul Anderson is a Lockheed Martin Astronautics senior manager, who grew up in Ames watching his dad head coach the ISU Men's Basketball team. After working for many years on several space projects, he has had the opportunity to recognize a few very important, "non-technical" skills in the workplace that are invaluable to engineers. The first 100 attendees will receive a Free Lockheed Martin T-Shirt. Reception following.
Stay for the entire event, including the brief question-and-answer session that follows the formal presentation. Most events run 75 minutes.
Sign-ins are after the event concludes. For lectures in the Memorial Union, go to the information desk in the Main Lounge. In other academic buildings, look for signage outside the auditorium.
Lecture Etiquette
- Stay for the entire lecture and the brief audience Q&A. If a student needs to leave early, he or she should sit near the back and exit discreetly.
- Do not bring food or uncovered drinks into the lecture.
- Check with Lectures staff before taking photographs or recording any portion of the event. There are often restrictions. Cell phones, tablets and laptops may be used to take notes or for class assignments.
- Keep questions or comments brief and concise to allow as many as possible.
