A cognitive-psychological approach is used to explore variations in the obsolescence experience at different career stages. The study is based on in-depth, semistructured interviews with 50 engineers and scientists from Israeli high-tech organizations. Results indicate that professional obsolescence and updating represent different processes to different people, and that career stage and organizational rank are the main dimension along which this variation occurs. Three kinds of varieties were identified in the data: varieties of cognitive schemata, meanings of threat, and updating resources.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114795544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over 500 Silicon Valley engineers enrolled in MBA programs were surveyed. Approximately 200 different companies were represented. Further insights emerged from follow-up respondent interviews and extensive discussions with human resource managers from four different companies along with identifying potential opportunities. Empirical evidence provides both point and counterpoint to popular fallacies about educating engineers. For example, significant numbers are leaving technical areas for other disciplines (non-technical) and management positions; most organizations do not treat education as an investment, failing to capitalize on increased employee competencies; and higher education increases an employee's expectations and has a lagged-time effect on turnover.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123075161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a given production schedule, a real-time dispatcher is invoked to select the right product type for assembly by looking at the overall line performance behavior. Information about line performance is collected by a line monitor. A product type has a high (low) dispatching priority if its actual output rate is less (greater) than its scheduled production rate. Selection of a product type is based on its priority and its level of work-in-process. Also implemented is a flow control policy which consists of job assignment, in-process storage sizing, detection of yield problems, and a parts feeding scheme.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"3 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132746771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sometimes these individuals leave organizations to start new companies, and sometimes economic conditions force them to hold corporate positions. If these people are appropriately placed and effectively managed, they can be very valuable to the organization. However, if placed in positions which do not allow expression of their unique characteristics, they are likely to become demotivated and unproductive. It is argued that entrepreneurs within organizations may be motivated by different factors, with emphasis and outcomes probably different from those of the typical employee. It is concluded that to motivate individuals effectively to accomplish corporate goals, the corporate reward system should be flexible enough to meet individual needs.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133729237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is argued that technical leadership requires a special combination of knowledge about science and technology to acquire respect, knowledge about behavior, and skill to lead. Extensive research conducted over a three-year period in 19 technologically oriented companies was examined. The degree to which technical leaders were able to facilitate the achievement of individual and group goals over multiple projects was related to their ability to address five strategic dimensions of technical leadership: coach for peak performance, run organizational interference, orchestrate professional development, expand individual productvity through teamwork, and facilitate self-management. Blending of strategic thinking and behavioral competence across dimensions was most characteristic of the more effective leaders.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130201943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She outlines the case study methodology used to understand the role of product definition in marketplace success, and delineates the differences between product definition processes employed to develop products which were and were not marketplace successes. Product definition success factors map the quality of the product definition effort to the marketplace performance of the product. The reasons for completing each success factor are also examined. It is concluded that Hewlett-Packard's product definition project demonstrates that there is much to learn from retrospective analysis. The organization needs to decide that it is committed to do what is necessary to be successful; it needs to follow the best practices' process; it needs to assess whether what it is doing is successful or unsuccessful; and it needs to correct the deficiencies.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124846792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faced with the challenge of introducing a total quality improvement program, Measurex developed a comprehensive effort consistent with the company's culture.

Conceptually, QIS is project-based, results-oriented, management direct and supported, and implemented practically. Recognition for those involved is based on the results achieved and not simply on their participation in some QIS effort. Since 1987, QIS has been used to introduce just-in-time manufacturing processes, the focused factory concept, a certified supplier programme, electronic data interchange, and other organization and department level quality improvement efforts.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127364689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concurrent project management methodology is linked tightly to the president of the firm, creates an interdisciplinary team approach to change, provides individuals with a clear direction, and achieves synergistic results. Key components of the methodology include executive/management steering teams, integrated project life cycle phases, a multicriteria prioritization process, simple project management tools, and interdisciplinary project teams.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122950387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ideational skills of the managers were assessed before and after training in the creative problem solving process, along with their attitudes about creative ideation, cognitive style (i.e. optimizer, generator, conceptualizer, or implementor), and evaluative skill (i.e. ability to recognize original ideas). The managers were significantly more accurate in their judgments after training, both in their identification of original ideas and recognition of unoriginal ideas. After training, the managers also gave more solutions and more original solutions to problems faced. Several variables (e.g. the preference for ideation attitude and an implementor cognitive style) seemed to moderate the impact of training, which was therefore effective, with specific effects predictable from pretraining individual differences in attitudes and cognitive style.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":235761,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Conference on Engineering Management, Gaining the Competitive Advantage","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124037266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
