Mindset Break it down – rozłóż na czynniki pierwsze
The tech industry is constantly evolving, and as a result companies often have to make abrupt changes in policy in order to keep up. Part of being successful in your career is being able to quickly and effectively adapt to challenging and unexpected work situations. Have the right mindset Simply having the right mindset can make a huge difference when dealing with unforeseen issues at work. Always approach a project with the expectation that things can change at any time. This way, you’ll be mentally prepared for any problems that may arise, and the quality of your work won’t suffer. Keep records of your work Document your work whenever possible. It really helps to have clearly laid out procedures to organize and manage all of the information, you’re working with so that you can easily retrace your steps and make changes to your work if necessary. Of course, it can be difficult to maintain up-to-date records when you’re in the midst of a busy project. However, even rudimentary documentation–like scribbling notes down into a notebook–can make a big difference in helping you make sense of your work.

Communication Meetings, presentations, reports, even s – all of these are day-to-day activities that require solid communication skills. As an engineer, you’ll often be required to communicate with other engineers and with co-workers from different departments, as well as with upper-level management. It’s important to remember that non-engineers don’t have the same background you do, so you’ll need to walk a fine line between simplifying complex concepts and communicating in a clear and direct fashion. Don’t be too technical Stay away from overly technical language whenever possible. While it’s still important to relay any valuable information, don’t delve into the really technical stuff unless absolutely necessary. Use analogies A good idea is to try and use analogies to describe complicated engineering concepts. For example, a common analogy in physics is to relate the flow of current in an electrical circuit to the flow of water through a pipe. By comparing an engineering process to a simple everyday operation, you can convey a basic understanding of a complex subject to a layperson, without them needing any specialized knowledge. Finding the right analogy can be difficult, but it will make communicating with your non-engineering colleagues that much easier (and they will be grateful for it!).
