Abstract :
Communication skills are consistently one of the most valued skill sets sought by employers. Unfortunately, due to the technical nature inherent to the engineering discipline, and often the hobbies that accompany individuals within the profession, the development of communication skills is often overlooked. The ability of an engineer to effectively communicate in the workplace manifests itself in numerous ways. This may be in communicating research progress or objectives, effectively supporting your company´s product or service to a client, or in client and peer training. With developed communication skills, engineers will see increased career opportunities and foster personal growth. A variety of means to improve your communication skills can be reached through a number of exciting opportunities that will pay dividends to both you and your employer.
