Importance Of Business Essentials

As briefly stated, during the past 5 years, I first started as an FEA and stress analysis responsible for design and engineering of the de-oiling units, but soon I got promoted to a senior mechanical engineer that became involved in different aspects of project execution, such as clients relationship, fabrication supervision, quality control, R&D and commissioning/start up support. In the last two years, due to the financial turmoil in the oil and gas market, I have been involved in budgeting and costing of our product lines, with the aim of optimizing design and lowering products’ overall cost, thus tailoring to the new market’s conditions. Due to the full exposure to a diversified fields of expertise, I recently became the engineering manager, consequently took a relevant course at University of Calgary in Sept. 2015 that was funded by Alberta Government and EWS in part, titled as “Business Essentials (BE) 2015-2016”. This course dragged me out of my conventional zone and gave me the chance to look at the engineering scene and its solution-providing approaches from a higher level. YOU ARE GIVING TOO MANY UNNECESSSARY DETAILS! THESE ARE ALL IN YOUR CV. It enabled me to realized my inherent leadership skills in mechanical engineering field and how much I could …show more content…
I am particularly interested in passing on the approach that I had earned in all these years to the younger generation of engineers. I firmly believe that the future of engineering, in particular ,mechanical engineering discipline, is dependent on engineers who are trained to think outside the box, those who value their career as means that contribute to resolving issues that affect mankind and the environment. We need engineers that are always keen to learn new topics, have multi-disciplinary attitude and are flexible to dmove out of their comfort
