Leadership for Engineers

Description

This Leadership for Engineers course tells you how to lead your engineers to success by inspiring the passion, excitement and love that we engineers have for engineering. We explore exactly what engineering is, what an engineer is and how to tap into our ingenuity and creativity. 

This short course complements my Leadership for Managers course also available here on Udemy.

Here we explore the particular dynamics that come into play and the leadership required to get the very best from your engineers. We consider what can make us different from other professions and the impact that our fascination with structures, mechanisms and processes can have on our behaviours and relationships - a key concern of good leadership

Whether you're a CEO or a Engineering Team Leader, you'll discover how to inspire your engineers with a powerful Vision and how to create an environment in which everyone strives to be and do their best.

For the past 15 years he has coached, mentored and trained hundreds of CEOs, Directors and Senior Managers from many sectors: FTSE100, Government, Academia, Non-Profit, SMEs and Startups. He is a Forbes Contributor on Leadership and published The Broken CEO: How To Be The Leader You Always Wanted To Be in 2020. He is a Chartered Engineer.

A basic premise of the course is that good leaders are self-aware - you need to understand people before you can lead them, and you need to understand yourself before you can understand others. So the course also explores aspects of how our minds really work.

This course explores:

• What is an Engineer

• How we are different from other professions

• The differences between management and leadership

• How to manage and lead engineers

• Why Diversity and Inclusion are so important for engineering

Applying the knowledge in this course will enable you to develop into a better, happier and more fulfilled leader of yourself and your engineers.
