This course is based on the dozen nontechnical soft skills covered in Carl's book "Stuff you Don't Learn in Engineering School: Skills for Success in the Real World" (Wiley-IEEE Press; 2004). Perhaps the best single overview of the content... a quote from Tom O'Neill, CEO of Parsons Brinckerhoff, on his giving the book to Dartmouth's 150 engineering graduates in 2005: "It is a good; useful publication about something that I believe very strongly. I was happy to see that someone has written a book about something that should be a fundamental precept for success in the world of engineering, and I was happy to share it with some young people who will shape the world for the next 40 years." These materials are designed to help younger engineers and emerging project managers -- indeed, engineers in all disciplines and all professionals -- learn the soft skills that are important to be more effective and happier in the real world.
