<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alegandron, post: 4403693, member: 51347&quot;]I had 40-some Engineers that worked within my Department, years ago.&nbsp; All were talented.&nbsp; We developed Fit-Form-Function Consumer Products, focused on everyday consumer needs.&nbsp; It required keen observation of true needs of people, and toss out your own bias.&nbsp; Critical thinking, viewing life through many frames of what people wanted or needed.</p><p><br /></p><p>One of the Engineers really did well, actually growing through the ranks, and headed the Department for me.&nbsp; He held several patents (I shared several with him), and he did a wonderful job, helping launch very successful products into the marketplace.&nbsp; He also had a talent working with people to bring out the best in THEIR abilities.&nbsp; We focused on and redefined everyday products, not &quot;fad&quot; items.</p><p><br /></p><p>He had a lot Horse-Sense.&nbsp; I asked him one day what his &quot;degree&quot; was.&nbsp; He was a little hesitant, but answered:&nbsp; High School Diploma.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It did not matter HOW he was educated, rather it mattered how he USED his education.&nbsp; His &quot;papers&quot; were real-life items that Humans used, successfully, on a daily basis.&nbsp; Proof-in-the-pudding was that folks would come back and buy the products again and again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
