OUR ALUMNI Once a NISTie, always a NISTie! We are proud to say we have thousands of NISTies all around the world, in an extensive range of professions and industries, immersed in an impressive range of countries and cultures. At NIST we grow global citizens, and we celebrate the individual journeys our students take. When students leave us, we ask them to stay connected, to continue to share experiences with other NISTies, and to remain in touch with our Bangkok campus. The NIST Alumni Association currently has over 1,600 members. Through this association, NIST is able to call on the expertise and experience of our past graduates to broaden the learning experience of our current students. Alumni often attend, supervise or assist with student learning through mentoring and networking, work experience and internships, as well as in-class teaching and professional learning. Not only does the Alumni Association keep us all connected in Bangkok, it also provides a forum for our alum to re-establish and maintain social and professional connections with peers. Various networking opportunities provide an invaluable opportunity for alum to tap into a vast pool of experienced professionals working and studying in different countries and within various industries. There is additional opportunity for Alum leaders to join the NIST Alumni Association Executive Board where they play a pivotal role in ensuring the ongoing connectivity of our alumni community. This extends beyond Bangkok, as they actively seek out ambassador opportunities worldwide. By fostering strong connections among alumni and with NIST, they help solidify our community's legacy and impact. If you are a past student of NIST, please visit our Alumni Association site under 360Alumni, and join the community.

Things your manager might not know!
When people talk about “managing up”, sometimes it’s framed as a bad thing – massaging the ego of people in charge so that they treat you well. In my experience, managing up is usually a lot more practical. Your manager doesn’t (and can’t!) know every single detail about what you do in your job, and being aware of what they might not know and giving them the information they need to do their job well makes everyone’s job a lot easier. Here are the facts your manager might not know about you and your team that we’ll cover in this post: What’s slowing the team down Exactly what individual people on the team are working on Where the technical debt is How to help you get better at your job What your goals are What issues they should be escalating What extra work you’re doing How compensation/promotions work at the company For each one, I’ll give specific ways you can help get them the information they need. All of these ways you can help them will also help you – it’s not just an altruistic endeavor :) This post (like all my writing about working with a manager) assumes that you generally have a good relationship with your manager. your manager can’t know every detail about your job I said this already, but I want to reiterate it: the reason your manager doesn’t know all these things isn’t because they’re not doing their job. It’s literally impossible for them to keep track of every detail about every person’s on their team’s job. It’s normal for managers to rely on their team to keep them informed about important facts they need to know, especially with more senior engineers. Keeping them informed helps them do their job better, and it makes your job a lot easier too. Let’s talk about how that works! they might not know: what’s slowing the team down Sometimes, you’re working on a project and the project is going more slowly than you hoped. There are always reasons for this – maybe there have been a lot more bugs than you expected, maybe you’re using a new technology nobody on the team has ever used before, maybe you’re waiting for another team to do something. The reasons things are hard change a lot! Even if your manager knew what was slowing you down 2 weeks ago, maybe that issue has been totally resolved and you’re onto a totally different problem. It’s a problem if your manager doesn’t know this mostly because if they know why you’re stuck, they might be able to help. Here is the full article .
