What means of communication do you use in your career? Engineering involves applying scientific
knowledge to solve problems. One key to doing this successfully is communication. A good engineer makes
effective use of as many methods and tools of communication as possible. Over
the years there have been many innovations and achievements by engineers that
have changed our lives. A great portion of this success can be traced back to
good communication among team members.
Good communication is not always easy. Engineers
will often find themselves as part of a team, but not always physically with
the team. The members could consist of engineers from all over the world. So
the question is, how do we effectively communicate and collaborate? What have
you found to be helpful to you or your co-workers? Tools, websites, communities
and forums, email, Skype, texting, the list goes on. What do you find most
effective in getting your ideas across accurately and easily? How do you think
communication among engineers could be improved?
