Invention and value creation happens when engineers show curiosity and initiative, and participate in defining โwhatโs nextโ.\n\n* Embrace Change: When we maintain the status quo, we hold ourselves back. Have an open mind. Donโt cling to existing processes, technical biases, etc. Try something new.
