What we’re about
Become the leader you've always wanted to work for. The Silicon Valley Engineering Leadership Community (SVELC) brings together current and aspiring innovation leaders to discuss what technical leaders need to know and how we can put that knowledge into action.
BE A MENTOR - GET A MENTOR . . . we have a mentoring program hosted by The Mentoring Club. Reach out to liesel@thementoringclub.org for more details and mention "SVELC".
Topics run a full gamut of technical, team building, and professional development topics. Many of our past programs are available on the SV-ELC YouTube channel:

See all- Victor M. Grado: Becoming a Leader of the Pack with AI2332 Harding Ave, Redwood City, CA
LIVE, IN PERSON SESSION at OUR HOME in REDWOOD CITY! No virtual.
SPEAKER: Victor M. Grado
DESCRIPTION: AI has been the talk of the town in the last year or so, including how it is going to replace workers, knowledge workers not spared. As an AI enthusiast since school times, I decided to check if the current Gen AI could replace most or all of my skills as a security architect, even soft skills whenever possible. In the most practical scenario, perhaps it could assist me in my duties, in the form of an AI assistant or agent. In either case, perhaps help me in engagements like vendor management, third party supplier management and even M&A initiatives.
The approach is general enough to be amenable to mapping to other engineering areas and exploring the use of AI for the leadership role as well.
