The most successful research scientists in any field are strong leaders with a firm understanding of themselves, their values and a clear vision of their goals. They can readily communicate their research agendas beyond the pragmatics of scientific techniques and experimental outcomes. However, most engineering programs lack a formal program to facilitate the development of these important leadership skills.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27349","created_gmt":"2011-02-03 10:08:32","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 02:24:18","author":"Floyd Wood","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","publication":"Michael Wolf","field_article_url":"","publication_url":"http:\/\/bmes.org\/aws\/BMES\/pt\/sd\/news_article\/38614\/_self\/layout_details\/false","dateline":{"date":"2010-12-20T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2010-12-20T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1292","name":"Parker H.
