ANS joins others in seeking to discuss SNF/HLW impasse
The American Nuclear Society joined seven other organizations to send a letter to Energy Secretary Christopher Wright on July 8, asking to meet with him to discuss “the restoration of a highly functioning program to meet DOE’s legal responsibility to manage and dispose of the nation’s commercial and legacy defense spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLW).”

The 21st century engineer needs to be collaborative, communicative, and multi-disciplinary. Often, the success of your company depends on it. However, we are often ill-equipped in team settings. This panel seeks to share the experiences of team leaders and engineers who have survived collaborative technical projects. Leaders will share their tips on creating an engaging and transparent environment while engineers will describe steps they have taken to contribute to the success of their teams. Topics include changing course mid-project, avoiding burnout, communication strategies, documentation best practices, and how to quit in the middle of a project.
