William C. Eggers |
|
Description:
|
|
At McDonnell Douglas, a skills assessment process was implemented in the engineering arm of the company eight years ago; this was the first division of the company to realize a need for the process. Initially, skills assessment was used to establish training needs, but eventually was used for career development, work force forecasting, and compensation as well. |

Description:

Project
engineering/management dominates the world of
new product and process development. However,
this process, which must be based on a
reasonably well-developed statement of purpose
and specification, continues to deliver less
than expected. A major contributor to this
shortfall is project scope creep. Scope creep
prevents organizations from meeting the criteria
within specification, on time, and at cost.
However, not recognizing new market requirements
can prove equally costly. This article includes
a a case study on project scope creep and the
problems encountered between marketing and
engineering groups. |

Description:
|
|
As organizations flatten,
opportunities for promotion seem to vanish.
However, executives are always looking for eager
individuals to solve problems or take on new
responsibilities. Success in these areas can
lead to formal promotions. Young engineering
managers should take on leadership roles
whenever the opportunities arise. |

|
Description:
|
|
The result of the current trends in employment and employment security is that employees no longer feel any loyalty to their companies. Individuals first identify with teir basic task and their group, and last with the company. With the portability of their skills, they can move from one company to another with ease. Formal certification just reinforces the independence and transferability of their skills. |
