Resilience - Important for Industrial Engineers

 


Why do You require #Resiliency as an Innovator or Industrial Engineer or as Good Change Manager?

Success is not easy. Even if you develop a prototype of a device or an artifact based on your idea, people will be indifferent to your ideas. You need to believe in your passion, the logic behind it and the reasons you think people have to use it for their benefit.

F.W. Taylor said objective demonstration done repeatedly only will persuade people that too one by one.

In sales, objection handling is an important step. Industrial engineers are also salesmen selling their idea. Idea selling is part of marketing and sales textbooks. Hence, IEs have to be prepared for objections and for giving answers to them. Still, the internal customers may not agree and point out problems. IEs have to listen patiently, have to think once again about the solution and if they think it is right, they have to recommend it again at the next opportunity.

Sometimes any idea rejected for including it in a process, may be accepted in a different process. So filing and keeping track of promising ideas is important for industrial engineers.
