Today, a prosperous technology company can be disrupted and put out
of business in a blink of an eye. The development of many different
technologies that once took years can be done in months or weeks.
There are also few examples where the engineering work is
completely contained in one company or one engineering
organization. Business strategies have evolved. The analysis of
competitive forces in an industry has matured to include the
concepts of disruptive innovation and coopetition. In an ecosystem
characterized by rapid changes in technology and how it is
developed, an engineering R&D organization will quickly become
irrelevant if it fails to keep the pace of innovation needed to
succeed. This book provides readers with a holistic approach to
engineering management. We have seen that successful managers
create a strong foundation of a common culture that enables
learning, value creation, diversity and inclusion. They create
organizations that tightly connect the core engineering functions
of strategic planning, research and development and are able to
comprehend and direct a broader R&D system that stretches well
beyond their own organization's boundary. Doing all of this to
extract the greatest value in the least amount of time is what we
call holistic engineering management. The content for this book is
based on over 105 years of combined experience working in a rapidly
changing industry. In most chapters, practical examples and case
studies of the concepts provided are given. As noted in the
foreword by Pat Gelsinger (CEO, VMWare) and in comments from other
technology leaders: Aart de Geus (Chairman and co-CEO, Synopsys,
Inc.), Aicha Evans (CEO, Zoox, Inc.), William M Holt, (former
Executive VP, GM, Intel, Corp.), and Amir Faintuch (Senior VP, GM,
GlobalFoundries, Inc.), this book will be valuable for students of
engineering management and current engineering managers.
