Advice I've taken way from this video.
1. Ownership: Its always the architect's fault.
2. Be Aggressive: Shoulder check the oldest PE/SE in the office to assert dominance.
3. Don't reinvent the wheel: Don't invent wheels, we're structural engineers not mechanical engineers.
I'm kidding by the way! This was great advice not only for performing the job but for changing how you interreact with coworkers and professionals from the other disciplines. I definitely think its best be someone who doesn't hide from their mistakes but accepts them and moves on. Thanks for another insightful video Mat!
I am so glad you do these videos! Super helpful! Thank you
Great content!! Congrats on passing the SE!!
Nice video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for making this content!
wow thank you very much, I am about to graduate with my masters degree in structural engineering… this is really helpful
Great Video!
Extreme ownership is critical. People who make excuses don’t get better.
Something you can do outside your workplace
1. Taken your ownership- Sometimes construction leaders tell you (designers) how they build up their construction projects before you do any designing phase of projects. Next time, find out how they build up their stuff. Also, you should stop blaming the natural disaster or Humanmade disaster. You should taking care of that messy situation.
2. Ask for forgiveness, not permission- buy books and/ or go to educational services. You can go to seminars. Also you can go to your local (or any online program) colleges or universities for few semesters class. You can taking classes with few credits, not getting the full graduate level college degree program. Find the classes that you are struggling with it. You can give free education or training to workplace.
3. Sometimes it's OK cheating and stealing. For you, Mat, if you plan moving to rural or suburbs areas that has no earthquake risk or high rise towers. It OK ask an other structural engineering firm how they do design work of small homes or smaller commercial buildings in no earthquake risk area if you plan start your company or stay same company in new areas.
Exactly.. are they problem solvers.. that is the key..
Hey can't explain it here, but I'm finding myself often in the analysis paralysis situation in my new work place. Many times it's exhausting. Any advice how to manage this?
Hi Mat ,actually i searched a lot about designing of water tank unfortunately I didn't find one can you please help me with that? thank you
Sir,can advance structural engineering course in uk be done with a part time job simultaneously for an international student?
Good Video! But I don't see the logic behind advice one. Of course you should take responsibility, but often the management could be at fault, that also has to be addressed. As a employee "ownership" is really reduced.
Hey Mat thnx for great content! :) can u tone it down with the background music for the next vid. Its like ure filming in the backstage of EDM festival :)
