This show is hosted by engineering enthusiasts, Anthony Fasano and Chris Knutson. Both are professional engineers who found success early in their careersand now work together to help other engineers do the same. Now, it’s show time!  \nAnthony: Hello! This is Anthony Fasano and this is the show for engineers who want to succeed in both work and life. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to help you and your engineering career through this podcast and also through [our website at](our website at engineeringcareercoach.com)[ ](our website at engineeringcareercoach.com)[engineeringcareercoach.com](our website at engineeringcareercoach.com).  \nIn today’s episode, I’m going to do something a little bit different. I’m going to take you inside The Engineering Career Summit, which is the event that my partner, Christian and I threw in Washington DC early May and will be throwing again next May in New Orleans, Louisiana. We are excited about that. We planned to make this an annual event focused on helping engineers develop both personally and professionally. We feel that there is a need for that in the engineering industry.  \nSo, in today’s episode, I’m going to play for you shortly an audio recording of one of The Engineering Career Summit sessions. This session was entitled ‘Engineering Leadership’ and was given by Pat Sweet, who actually appeared on this show as a guest in Episode 28 talking about crafting meaningful emails for engineers. Pat Sweet is a Professional Engineer working in Ontario, Canada as a product manager in the rail industry. He’s also the author behind the Engineering and Leadership blog [at](at engineeringandleadership.com)[ ](at engineeringandleadership.com)[engineeringandleadership.com](at engineeringandleadership.com), where he shares his thoughts and experiences on leadership, productivity and different career strategies for engineers. It’s an excellent blog. You should check that out.  \nBut the session you are about to hear was a very interesting session that Pat gave at the Summit. Infact, in the beginning of the session when you hear it, he pulls the engineers in the audience as to ask them what leadership is and I thought that some of the definitions of leadership were really interesting. One that stood out was, and you will hear this in the show here coming up, is that leadership is not management and he kind of gets into that. He did have some slides for his presentation but I don’t think you need the slides at all. You can pretty much get all the information from the audio.  \n[www. engineeringcareercoach. com](www. engineeringcareercoach. com)  \nSo, it should be very valuable for you and I hope you enjoy it and also get a little bit of flavor of how powerful the event as a whole was. Before we get into the main segment of the show, I do want to take a moment to recognize our sponsor for today’s episode.  \nAre you thinking about taking the FE Electrical and Computer Exam?
