Nudging Technical People to Embrace their Human Skills
Emily Nichols nudges technical people to embrace their human skills, so they can become better problem solvers, team players, and leaders. A professional engineer - seriously, she has a BS in Systems Engineering and a MAS in chemical engineering - with more than 15 years of experience in manufacturing and innovation, Emily has worked with organizations like PepsiCo, PPG, Janssen, Henkel, improving products and processes from breakfast cereal to automotive paint and electrical steel. Emily easily connects at all levels of organizations, inspiring deeper understanding, and collaborative teamwork.
Today we are going to talk about how embracing a spark in early 2020 lead to the creation of her incredible studio, the joy that comes from designing your own creative space such as a wedding during a pandemic…. and her amazing workshop called Drawn Together where she shows how simple sketches bring people together and create shared understanding. I was fortunate enough to participate in a workshop led by Emily and let me tell you, this program proves that we CAN draw and explains why we should. So hold on to your hardhats it’s time to find a spark of inspiration from the woman that summarized her chemical engineering master’s thesis in five Dr. Seuss rhymes.
