The book is intended to focus the engineer or technically minded individual on key aspects of their organization and how they can leverage their position to make a positive impact. The author explains why it is critical that the technically minded individual is aware of their corporate environment and how they and their organization fit within the organizational structure. Technical knowledge is just one component of success for engineers. The book provides readers with the tools to understand where they fit in with their organizations and what they can do to support corporate objectives. This book will address topics including gaining a big picture of an organization, defining what a specific organization does, understanding goals and objectives to align management strategies, budgeting, role in the supply chain, engineering career paths, and the importance of innovation.
