Bringing New-Age Behavior to Engineering
ANN ARBOR, Michigan, 25 November 2014—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm announces a new whitepaper authored by John Mannisto, Engineering Director for Simulation-Based Design at Whirlpool Corporation.
In this paper John Mannisto makes a strong case for companies adopting “new age” behaviors and social technologies to collaborate more effectively globally. John says unless a global company uses all its knowledge, it is losing out. Through story telling with examples from his personal life, John points out that social media is outpacing how we work. Based on his organization’s experimentation with social technology, he argues that bringing these approaches to our work environment will enable tremendous efficiencies. John’s advice is to look outside; bring a solutions provider along for the ride but own your journey. He says only then will this new way of working fully embed with your teams.
