- We can't afford any more accidental engineers, explains Stephanie Hill, who has been recognized for her career achievements and community outreach, especially in the advancement of STEM education. Diversity drives innovation, and we need more voices at the table to make the impossible possible. Stephanie C. Hill is the Senior Vice President of Corporate Strategy and Business Development at Lockheed Martin.
In this role, Ms. Hill is responsible for global strategies and new business capture, and leads the Lockheed Martin business development organization. She also serves as chair of the Greater Baltimore Committee and sits on the Board of Directors for Project Lead the Way, the nation’s leading provider of K-12 Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) programs, and also serves on the Board of Visitors for the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.
Since joining Lockheed Martin in 1987 as a software engineer, Ms. Hill has held positions of increasing responsibility including: Vice President & General Manager of Information Systems & Global Solutions Civil business; Vice President of Corporate Internal Audit; and Vice President & General Manager of the Electronic Systems Mission Systems & Sensors business. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
I wish I had come across this earlier. I'm a 15 year old just starting to get into S.T.E.M. The encouragement really helps.
you’re still young lol
how you doin? did you get in a stem career?
Hello to all!! God and Universe bless you Dr. Hill!!!! You made my day!!!! I cannot believe I meet you through here. Casuality??
You put more gas to my inspirations, and today, my two little kids will learn about you!!
THANKS FOR YOUR EXISTENCE!
Gracias por Existir!!
Thanks for doing this. As an academically trained biologist with B.S. and M.S. degrees (chemistry and immunology minors), I passed off my opportunity for other interests. In the past few years, I have become a donor and avid believer/supporter in STEM, for our country's sake. Most folks will miss what you are saying because they don't understand the benefits of expanding the reach and interests to all members of our population. Please keep on spreading your message. I also know your current employer very well from many years of interaction in my program management; cost analysis; and, logistics management days. Thanks again.
Say Yes to Your Dreams hi! You have an interesting story! If you’d like to pass along my daily challenges for kids and teachers in coding and animation- I would be grateful! Here is my channel and I agree- the world needs to learn more about what’s so great in STEM education!
I want to be a mechanical engineer but it's been difficult for me since I'm not that good in math, physics and chemistry, but thanks for this video it inspires me to keep going🙂
Check out Khan Academy. It will help you learn any STEM topic at your own pace. It's the best educational resource and it's free! As long as you have at least average intelligence (50% chance, which is pretty high), you can learn most things.
And remember, you don't need to be the best engineer to be AN engineer. 50% out of all engineers are below average. So even if you are not super smart, you could be one of them if that's what you want.
Just don't fall into the talent trap. Most people are not Mozart and don't have any special talent. You need to work hard to develop your knowledge and skills. That's the true talent. Working hard is easier when you are doing something you love/enjoy. Therefore, the area that you love/enjoy is the area you have the greatest chance of succeeding in..
@@PeterKoperdan Thanks man!
@June: People can struggle in the short term, but still succeed in the long run. You just need to have the drive, determination, and persistence.
I was the gym class joke in middle school, but that was before I later went on to become an 8-time BJJ champion and yoga teacher.
Full disclosure as an engineering student who particularly struggles in those areas as well. Do not let that stop you, there are many resources that you can go to for help and they want to make sure you understand things
I you understand basic math sometimes that is enough. I have Dyslexia. I used to fail my math exam. I worked hard. I am an inventor of 21 products. Was a chief Engineer in a oil and gas company.
I am an accidental engineer. Always loved science and math...got into local volunteer fire department in MD at age 16...was studying electronic technology at local vo-tech school...loved that...Senior year of HS...learned about opportunity to go to U-MD College Park to study fire protection engineering...loved fire, loved tech stuff, jumped at it. Struggled, but made it through. Great career field.
It’s great that you could overcome the struggle. That is the greatest lesson.
Thanks so much for your presentation. I've started on the road of creating my own STEM school so kids in our community can access it more easily.
How’s your STEM school coming along?
This is the energy we need in this country.
I love S.T.E.M.! Thank you for the encouragement!
I was rudderless through high school and even after obtaining a college degree in Personnel Mgmt I still felt unexcited about my career choices. After a 2-year stint as a Burger King manager I re-enrolled in college and decided upon a second degree in Management Information Systems. My first programming language requirement was PL/1. And like Ms Hill, I found myself hooked into becoming an accidental engineer. In 4 months I will celebrate 34 years with Lockheed Martin. I should now be exploring retirement options but the challenge is, finding something that will provide the same reward I enjoy by solving problems.
I have two stepsons that are currently in high school. STEM is preached and promoted by teachers as well as at home. However currently, there seems to be little interest. I can only hope the bug bites one or both of them as it did me once they are in college. If not, then I pray they find something that will inspire them and allow them to attain their full potential.
In the meantime, I am restoring a sailboat which I then plan to use to travel to parts unknown (hopefully accompanied by my wife). Perhaps the challenge of learning about navigation, weather, diesel mechanics, electrical and plumbing systems, and of course sailing, will fill the void once my career with Lockheed Martin has concluded. I congratulate Stephanie Hill on her success and at the time of this post, her position as senior vice president of Lockheed Martin's Enterprise Business Transformation organization.
This summer I was sent an invitation to a stem summer camp for my 8th grade son ... I didn't know or understand what the stem program was or what it represents. This presentation has been very informative & fun. Prayerfully we can participate on next year, and I will show my son this video. Wonderful presentation.
She’s awesome, very motivating
Stephanie i loved the way you spoke... fearless and contentfull....
Thank you for posting this. I'mglad that your favorite subject is Math. We at NSTEM know how rewarding and awesome STEM fields and careers are. I enjoyed hearing about the rogue satellite and how you literally saved the world.
I run a women in stem club at my school, and I’m showing this video during one of our meetings!
LOL SAME
This is great Ted Talk. STEM should be a mandatory class for elementary schools. I'm a teacher and I read STEM books on my channel. Feel free to check them out at your leisure.
We have a STREAM lab in our elementary school
I’m going to your RUclips and check out your books.
Wow! I could listen to her for hours!
Wow! What an impact 12 minutes can have. This should be shared in every classroom.
Amazing! Just started to learn how to code yesterday, I hope to stick with it and build something that helps our future as a Human-race.
Thank you!!! Universe bless you!!!
I’m so glad I took stem 🥺😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ it’s hard but it’s worth it
Inspiring🎉
excellent stephanie you are a genius
So enlightening! Thank you for sharing
K-Max was clearly modeled after the fictional Cobra Mamba. In the G.I.Joe: ARAH toy line. The blades are in the same arrangement.
Thank you Miss Lady! You are my Inspiration Avenger! Sending you and yours much love and blessings! You rock!
She is an accidental engineer. I am an accidental teacher. I went to college for mechanical engineering, worked in mechanical engineering, became all washed up, and then went into teaching so I could get a paycheck.
Is teaching your true passion?
I love your energy, message, and your mission..... Amazing!!!!
This ted talk was so delightful :D Please thumbs up this video so more people see :) I strongly agree with the fact that stem is underrepresented and that we need more people going into the field!
Very Inspirational! I would love to meet you!!!! I am a former Industrial Electrician / Robot Tech and now Industrial Engineer (with training in Electrical Engineering and Mechatronics).

I’m so surprised this doesn’t have more views
It should have more views
My COBAL class turned me off completely so I didn’t pursue it at all! I got an MBA.
This is great.
“Lockheed Martin does amazing things” … yeah, they rejected me after my job interview. :(
My UB STEM director is always talking about how we need to raise the amount of minorities with.
Wow
This is good 👍 🙏
wow
Unfortunately, most high school engineering books (in my experience) do not actually teach engineering. They just try to recruit people into engineering. They are really just recruiting brochures masquerading as textbooks.
Esa es profe
As if English would ever be important enough to represent the E. E is for engineering, the meaningful application of science and math to develop technologies.
Although ive looked on the union pacific website and they give jobs to mostly engineers, any type really
hi guys
The “T” in STEM represents “Technology” and the “E” represents “Engineering”. Technology and engineering are related in that technology is the physical result of engineering work. Engineering is a discipline. Technology is not. To list technology as a “discipline” distinct from the discipline of engineering is splitting hairs. If you try to make a discipline out of technology, then that discipline is engineering.
There should be no “T” in the acronym. It should just be “S.E.M.” - Science / Engineering / Math.
RUclips algorithm,whats going on?????
American education system.
Lockheed?! Na, Northrop Grumman
By the way a satellite does not have a fuel tank and if at all it does it cannot cause a catastrophe on the earth LOL (5:20 onwards)
It sure does have a fuel tank.
Where exactly and what's the purpose?
@@riyana2 There's four purposes of satellite having a fuel tank on top of my head. 1. reach desired orbit after lauch, 2. Counter act the effects of drag by atmosphere (not perfect vacuum even for higher orbits sats) 3. Escape collision courses with other satellite objects 4. Dispose of satellite at end of life.
Engineering, as we were told was all about math...its not..its all about problem solving.
Great coding!😎
Kermit
can i contact her? if anyone has her email id , plz share with me/
Sorry she is married
