Course Description

Leaders in technical fields devote up to 90% of their time communicating -- listening, writing, speaking, presenting, coaching, and counseling. The ability to communicate one's ideas in a concise, coherent, and easily understood manner remains an incredibly important, though often overlooked, skill among engineering leaders. More than this, communication is the vehicle by which one manages and leads. That is, one may be the best leader with the greatest collection of management skills; but a person with only those skills will not achieve their fullest potential unless they can communicate effectively. Indeed, when done right, effective communication greatly enhances the effectiveness of our management skills. The field of engineering, more than any other, needs great communicators and this course will take you there.
