The Impactful Engineer - Mentorship, Career Growth, and Personal & Professional Excellence for Aspiring Engineers

This is a short presentation I gave to the team at work to stir up some thoughts around delegation and challenge those thoughts that don't serve us. This is a solid reminder of the power of delegation and why you should consider it as an excellent tool, but also as a necessary growth lever as well.

Jake Kennington is our guest for this episode of The Impactful Engineer. Do you have someone you look up to or have admiration for, or that you aspire to be?

They just seem to have what you want, or are doing things you want to do, and seem to do it despite some the reasons you give for not being able to (ouch, but stay with me). Why is that? What makes them able to do so?

Jake breaks it down and helps you see how you aren't that far from doing the things that allow you to achieve some great things.

You can find Jake online:

Jake has a weekly newsletter and you can schedule free calls from his website. 

Enjoy!
