Episode 58 - Engineering Careers Need This

People will choose to do business with those they know, trust, and respect. Even if their service they provide is not "top notch." We can argue all day long about who does what better (especially amongst ourselves and our competitiors), and it won't mean a damn thing. While we spend time thinking we are the best engineers around and provide the best service, others will be meeting and developing relationships with others in the engineering industry that we do business, and gaining more work.It doesn't mean that we don't get better (as individuals and organizations). It does mean that if nobody knows about you or your stuff, you'll have a hard time growing and taking advantage of opportunities and gaining some great clients.This goes for both the business and your career. So get used to building relationships with others in an intentional way. And it starts with simply getting out there. *****************************************************************************************Let's dive in!The Impactful Engineering Project's purpose is to bring awareness, access, success, and mentorship to all new and aspiring engineers.
