AFFINITY GROUP LEADERS

Affinity groups are meant to be an engagement space for people in similar roles or identifications. We join together in an online space to increase our networks (outside of those we may see at conferences) and to bring in newer professionals or those who cannot easily build a network in person. Group leaders set the agenda each month, however we encourage there to be a topic and guided flow of discussion and not necessarily presentations.

Affinity Group Director, Senior/SIO Leaders

Affinity Group Director, Pacific Regional Professionals

Affinity Group Director, East Asia Professionals

Coffee Connect Coordinators (2 open roles)

Pop Up Host, AIEA Conference (Washington DC)

Pop Up Host, APAIE Conference (Asia/Pacific location varies)

Pop Up Coordinator, AIEC Conference (Pacific region location varies)


COFFEE CONNECT COORDINATORS

Every month we offer a 30-minute online chat with people who are not yet members of The League so they can learn about our mission and our programs.  During this short program, we engage with attendees using the zoom chat features and unmuted dialogue.  This team works together so that each person does not have to attend every month.  In this role we encourage creativity and ideas for how to bring more people to Coffee Connect.


POP-UP HOSTS

While we love our online space, we love seeing people in person too. For each major or minor conference in our field, we like to offer a pop-up event where we gather in a bar near the event site and mingle. These are non-host events so there are no budgets or event details to manage. You just volunteer to be a host if you are attending and be sure to welcome people when they arrive. It’s a great way to use your social energy and expand your networks.
