Survival Techniques for the Practicing Engineer

Beschreibung

Providing engineers with the tools and skills to survive and become successful in the work place The engineering field, both the corporate and government sectors, can be a tough place to try to navigate if you don't know the rules, risks, politics, or have a plan. Engineering is more complex than most fields since the products and processes that engineers work on have to function correctly so that people and the environment are not damaged and customers are satisfied with the product produced all under significant financial restraints. Based on the authors 45 year career of personal experiences Survival Techniques for the Practicing Engineer fills this gap by providing engineers with both the tools to survive in work place and skills to become successful. The book delves into the techniques young engineers can learn to find their way in the workplace. More importantly it discusses lessons learned through-out a career. These lessons should be most useful for the practicing engineer to know and to help them be successful. Survival Techniques for the Practicing Engineer features: * Experience-based, highly realistic guidance to a cross-section of young and even established engineers * Practical guidance and acts as a handy resource so that lessons do not have to be learned the hard way with numerous errors, and costly problems * Real world examples and case studies What is a successful engineer can mean different things to different people. Being highly respected and confident, performing useful work, building things, being able to touch things you have built or repaired, solving problems, becoming a manager, enjoying a high salary, always being employed are definitions of success some use as well as working with passion. Readers of this book will now have this information early to help them through their career.
