509: Swarmed by Engineers

Steve Hinch wrote a book about engineering, innovation, and business. He shares decades of wisdom gleaned from his career at Hewlett-Packard and Agilent as an engineer, manager, marketing director, and general manager.

Steve's book is Winning through Innovation: Lessons from the Front Lines of Business. While mostly retired, Steve is an executive consultant, see his website to get in touch: Stephen W. Hinch.

We also touched on some of Steve's nature and hiking volumes as well. While Elecia is reading My First Summer in the Sierra by John Muir | Project Gutenberg, Steve suggested works by Edward Abbey might be of interest.

Elecia and Steve both received copies of Bill Packard's The HP Way: How Bill Hewlett and I Built Our Company while at HP.
