This book explores the traditional principles of management — both the art and the science — as they relate to the engineering and technology professions in general — and to the specific kinds of work and projects engineers are most likely to encounter routinely on the job. Considers the nature and application of management principles throughout the technology product/project life cycles. Reflects the current “reengineering” trend within American companies — and the resultant downsizing of middle management, an emphasis on employee teams, a focus on quality and productivity and customer satisfaction. Incorporates new management methods and tools. Surveys recent global trends that affect American technology management.
