Ep 3 - The 'Road' to Successful Management in The Transportation Sector - Peter Vilic

From studying archaeology in Europe, and translating his skills into the line of management, Peter Vilic has seen it and experienced it all in his 30 years of industry in the civil and transport engineering sector. Originally making the long haul from Western Europe to Australia, Peter has seen the rapid application of technology changing the face of one of the most progressive industries in the world, from the days of pen and paper all the way through to the modern age of drones, AutoCAD and BIM modeling. Throughout this episode we discuss what it means to be a leader and the people management skills that are required to succeed in the engineering world, delving deep into what it truly means to be multiskilled. Gaining the experiences required for multiskilling of course isn't an easy task, that's why we ask Peter to share some of his top tips for interviewing methods and job acquisitions, allowing you to get that first foot in the door.  This episode is perfect for anyone looking at what's involved in the civil and transport engineering sector, both respective of its past history and its recent developments reflecting on both the technologies available now and previously that contribute towards its rapid development. Sit back and relax as we cover all of these concepts as we chat to one of Australia's greatest generation of experienced engineers.
