The Secret to Becoming an Innovative Design Engineer

April 25, 2017 By EMI

This is a guest post by Patrick Sweet, P.Eng.

The Secret to Becoming an Innovative Design EngineerI was recently listening to an interview with Ben Brenton, the Chief Innovation Officer of Snap-on Tools on the Everyday Innovator Podcast.

What’s behind this that can help you become an innovative design engineer?
