Rise to Leadership: Exploring Your Journey from Technical Expert to People Leader
As the semiconductor industry continues to evolve, technical experts are increasingly expected to take on leadership roles and manage teams to drive innovation and business success. Transitioning from an individual contributor to a people leader requires a new set of skills, mindset, and support.

Through industry sharing, fireside chats, and panel discussions, the forum will explore leadership pathways, the challenges of first-time managers, and the success toolkits needed to become effective people leaders. The forum will also highlight the role of principal engineers and the importance of strong HR-business partnerships in developing future-ready leaders.
This forum provides a platform for professionals, people managers, and HR leaders to learn from industry peers, exchange experiences, and gain practical insights to support their leadership journey in the semiconductor industry.
