‘The dream manager’ – the difficulty of filling engineering management positions in the futureAbstractIn the past engineering companies have battled and competed over product price, customer service, operational excellence, industry leadership, productivity and quality. While these factors will remain important in the future, many companies already have a new battleground to contend with – the battle for talent [1], [2]. This paper investigates the impacts of these developments especially in the MEMS marketplace. It will indicate approaches to allow fostering employee development and to retain knowledge inside organizations. Finally ways to collaborate more successfully between different locations and organizations are discussed.
