Power Hour: United in Vision, Driven by Innovation
Voluntary associations always face the possibility of chairs (in our case General Managers) burning out and members not seeing the value promised to them.
The new addition to our trial and tested branch model spreads leadership across a Branch Council led by our Chief Operations Officer, Gerhard Greeff. It adds clear value streams like CPD training, networking, and recognition, and ensures national support. This way, branches thrive, members grow, and SAIMC stays strong for the future.
The SAIMC NPC is excited to introduce Power Hour, a new online discussion forum created to spark meaningful conversations around topics that influence the country, our personal lives and the broader automation and instrumentation industry.
These interactive sessions will be hosted via Microsoft Teams, ensuring that members across the country—especially those who cannot easily attend in person Branch Tech Talks or Knowledge Sharing for Industry (KS4I) events — can participate and benefit.
As we grow this platform, we warmly welcome contributions from our members. If you are a Member, National Member, Regional Member or a Didactic Member who has implemented a unique or innovative solution, we would love to showcase your experience in a future Power Hour session. Your insights can inspire others and strengthen knowledge-sharing across our community.
More details about the schedule, topics, and participation can be found in the calendar on our website https://saimc.co.za.
We invite you to partner with SAIMC in this transformation. Together, we can build stronger branches, empower professionals, and ensure the long-term success of South Africa’s automation community
Let’s make Power Hour a powerful knowledge hub for all.
