Engineer Into The
Workforce: Common Misperceptions ENGR 499, Engineering Capstone Project, Winter 2016 ©David Mayes 23
24.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 1: “Everybody Loves “Cool New Technology” • Not exactly! • Assess commercial viability first! • Listen to potential customers • Validate with third party market research ©David Mayes 24
25.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 2: “I need to go-it-alone to insure quality & design elegance” • Working alone or only with other engineers sounds good, but… • You need a team with diverse skills to build a thriving business • Think “business management” from the outset ©David Mayes 25
26.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 3: “Marketing is fluff and selling is black magic” • If you build it, they will NOT necessarily come! • In reality, many “best designs” lose to competitors with better marketing • The legendary microprocessor, the Intel 8086 was a “DOG!” ©David Mayes b

28.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 4: “We need to maximize functionality before we focus on customers” • You can’t engineer the right functionality UNTIL you focus on listening to customers • Customers will buy only the functionality they need and want…nothing more ©David Mayes 13
29.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 5: “A good engineer hates unpredictability and risk” • A good entrepreneur embraces risk • Engineer driven solutions are often too little, too late…if they ever ship! • Managing risk is good; trying to eliminate risk is bad ©David Mayes 29
30.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 6: “We can’t worry about making money until we get it built” • If you can’t make money, it isn’t a business • Business and market constraints are key determinants of “getting it right” • Getting it right at the wrong cost = failure ©David Mayes 30
31.
ENGR 499, Engineering
Capstone Project, Winter 2016 Engineer Into The Workforce: Common Misperceptions Misconception # 7 “Outside financing causes loss of control and undue pressure to deliver” • Funding turbocharges a startup company • “Smart money” adds management value • Canadian gov’t grants focus on pure R&D • “Grantsmanship” is bad business strategy • Angels and VC’s focus on making money ©David Mayes 31
