WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
The price above is inclusive of GST 6% Arm engineers with the
tools and vocabulary necessary to be more effective when interacting with
senior management, and for promotion to senior management. For the past 20 years, utilities have gradually
been transitioning from engineering-driven to business-driven decision-making.
In the past, most top executives at utilities came from the engineering ranks
and understood engineering issues in detail. Today, most top executives at
utilities have business backgrounds and are primarily concerned with investor
relations and “the bottom line.” One consequence of this shift is an increasing
communications gap between utility executives and the engineers. Spending can
no longer be justified with the argument “it makes good engineering sense.”
Rather, spending must be justified with “it makes good business sense.” It is
now the responsibility of the engineer to communicate engineering needs in
terms of business goals and metrics. To do this, it is critical for utility
engineers to be armed with the essential business skills covered in this three-day
course. Media Partners:
