Different Types of Engineering…Different Leadership Approaches

What does it take to lead an engineering team when the stakes range from public infrastructure and patient safety to digital transformation and advanced manufacturing?
While engineering leaders often share common goals such as delivering results, developing talent, and driving innovation, the realities of leading different engineering disciplines couldn't be more different.
Join an panel of leaders from civil, software, biomedical, and mechanical engineering as they pull back the curtain on what leadership really looks like in their worlds. Through stories from the field, lessons learned, and candid discussion, the speakers will explore how they motivate teams, manage risk, navigate complexity, make critical decisions, and create cultures of excellence under dramatically different conditions.
Join us for a compelling 45mins to discover:
• Why the same leadership approach can succeed in one engineering discipline and fail in another
• How project timelines shape leadership decisions and team culture
• What motivates different types of engineering teams
• Lessons for balancing innovation, quality, safety, compliance, and speed in different engineering environments
• The unique dynamics and influence of different types of engineering teams

Participants will have the opportunity to meet the speakers afterwards. Speakers are from TDIndustries, Bartlett & West, Abbott and Southwest Airlines
