Entrepreneurial times call for "The Entrepreneurial
Engineer"
In an age when technology and business are merging as never
before, today's engineers need skills matched with the times.
Today, career success as an engineer is determined as much by an
ability to communicate with coworkers, sell ideas, and manage time
as by talent at manipulating a Laplace transform, coding a Java
object, or analyzing a statically indeterminate structure.
This book covers those nontechnical skills needed by today's
entrepreneurial engineers who mix strong technical know-how,
business and organizational prowess, and an alert eye for
opportunity. Author David Goldberg unlocks the keys to ten core
competencies at the heart of what entrepreneurial engineers need to
master to be effective in a fast-moving world of deals, teams,
startups, and innovating corporations.You'll discover how to: Feel
the essence--and the joys--of engineering Examine personal
motivation and set goals Master time management and organization
Write fast and well under pressure Prepare and deliver effective
presentations Understand and practice good human relations Act
ethically in matters large, small, and engineering Assess
technology opportunities Understand teams, leadership, culture, and
the organization of organizations
