From Engineer to Manager: Mastering the Transition

Rating:
Summary: Remarkable Insights in Engineering Management
Review: I found Dr. Aucoin's book "From Engineer to Manager: Mastering the Transition" to be incredibly insightful based on my 16+ years of experience, and plan to add this book to my personal library for future reference. I have been fortunate to have worked in multiple disciplines in the commercial nuclear power industry and can easily relate to Dr. Aucoin's topics and perspectives. The wealth of information in this book "hits the nail on the head" time and time again. Not only does Dr. Aucoin cover the technical bases extremely well, he also provides an in-depth perspective in understanding the complex aspects of managing human beings, beginning with being good managers of ourselves. This balanced approach will serve the aspiring engineering manager well in his or her career. Unlike many technical reads, "From Engineer to Manager" was an entertaining and truly enjoyable read.
