The world is undergoing unprecedented changes. In industry, portfolios of companies are changing as a result of mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and sales, and restructuring. The global pandemic is changing the ways of working and the expectations of employees. There is increasing urgency to address climate change, and diversity equity and inclusion, and the promise of digitalization is fast becoming a reality. These dramatic changes impact the engineering expertise needed to ensure continued success of industry. How do leaders develop a robust pipeline of these experts for the future? What new capabilities do these experts need in order to adapt to the changes? What should leaders do to develop and sustain those capabilities over time? This session will attempt to address these questions beginning with the presentation by Dr. Senyo Opong, the Management Division 2021 Management Award recipient followed by other invited speakers and a panel discussion at the end of the presentations.
