Jae Hoon Kim, Ph.D. On behalf of the 39th Administration, I would like to thank you all for your dedicated service to KSEA. Thanks to your contributions, KSEA is now making steady and healthy progress. As of now we all can witness that KSEA has the opportunity to take a quantum leap forward to a single unique organization, truly representing all Korean-American Scientists and Engineers and Affiliated Professional Societies in the US. We should continue to sustain and even increase this momentum. In that sense, it was great to open the New Year with our YGTLC 2011 in Seattle, WA. This KSEA Letters Vol. 39-2, as the first issue in 2011, will have in-depth coverage of the YGTLC events. As we started the 39th Administration in July 2010, we launched an ambitious business plan and worked hard to achieve such organizational goal and vision. In August, 2010, we successfully organized and hosted UKC 2010 in Seattle, WA under the theme, “Green Technology for A New World.” We opened the New Year with YGTLC 2011 (January 7-10, 2011) in Seattle, WA under this year’s theme of “Emerging Technologies, Emerging Leaders.” YGTLC became the most premiere conference for 1.5 and 2.0 Generation Korean-Americans in Science, Engineering, Technology, and Leadership. I have witnessed that the YGTLC leadership exemplifies the true spirit of the Korean-American Young Generation. Personally, YGTLC 2011 was a memorable event to me as I had the honor to celebrate my Rabbit year birthday with YG Leaders as well as KUSCO and KSEA Directors one evening at my home during the YGTLC 2011. Where we are now… In January 2011, we had the Mid-Term Council Meeting at KSEA HQ in Vienna, VA with nearly 60 attendants including many Former Presidents, Local Chapter Presidents, Technical Group Councilors, Committee Chairs, Auditors, Directors, and HQ staff. The audit report from the Mid-Term Review summarizes that “The overall status of the KSEA is very healthy and growing, the financial position of the association is stronger than ever, and the 39th administration has been in compliance with the Bylaws and Policies of KSEA.” Thank you to everyone. In the first half (July - December 2010) of the 39th Administration, we made great progress and some important accomplishments. 1) Installed KSEA HQ networking infrastructure including network server (Dell PowerEdge) and security server (Netgear ProSecure STM600), LAN (Local Area Network), VPN (Virtual Private Network) to remotely access KSEA Servers. 2) Accomplished KSEA-KOTRA Membership Database under KOTRA Project. 3) Completely redesigned the KSEA public website. 4) Implemented online membership management with a new YG Database. 5) Enhanced online재미한인 processes 과학기술자 for 인명록 scholarships, e-Voting, NMSC, and UKC. 6) Completed digital archiving of all published KSEA Letters since 1971. 7) Launched “ ” (KSEA Directory for Who’s Who in Korean-American Scientists and Engineers). 8) Initiated KSEA History Task Force and established a formal “KSEA History Committee (KHC)” with approval from the Council to collect KSEA history to later publish a historical document to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of KSEA. 9) Started KSEA Tech Book Series publication with the first Tech Book entitled, “Green IT: Technologies and Applications.” 10) Set a record number of members (as of January 31), 2317 members (1933 paid) and a separate YG database of 1,000 members

    http://www.diversityinc.com 'The Apprentice': Ex-DiversityInc Employee Gives Us the Inside Scoop By Yoji Cole If you're a fan of NBC's Donald Trump-led "Apprentice," Surya Yalamanchili, the most recently fired candidate and the former marketing director of DiversityInc, wants to tell you the show is less about dealing with office politics than it is about dealing with being a game contestant. "It wasn't what I expected," said Yalamanchili, who was depicted as intense and focused on the show in contrast to other contestants who were more playful. "I expected a six-week job interview and got a game show, but the game show was the experience of a lifetime." Yalamanchili, 25, who is currently a brand manager for emerging media strategy at Procter & Gamble, one of DiversityInc's 25 Noteworthy Companies in 2006, is an achiever. His potential was evident early on. Prior to P&G, he worked at DiversityInc as an intern and was promoted to director of marketing while he attended college full time. In addition to his salary, DiversityInc paid his tuition at Rutgers University. "Surya is one of the most intelligent people I've ever met," says DiversityInc Partner and Cofounder Luke Visconti. "He was an exceptionally capable intern, easily No. 1 out of hundreds we've employed over the years. He has a keen strategic mind." "At DiversityInc I learned about how diversity should work at an organization to make it stronger," says Yalamanchili. "At Procter, I saw those principles at work. The people here have the utmost integrity.
