    Boost Your Professional Value by 50% - Why Communications Matters

    Boost Your Professional Value by 50% - Why Communications Matters

    Why Maintenance & Reliability Communications Goes Wrong, and How to Fix it!

    In Maintenance and Reliability, communication may be the most important skill set to have, whether talking with production, asking for budget approval, or getting that promotion, yet this skill set is never taught in class or any reliability certification path.

    As Maintenance and Reliability leaders, we often need to take complex technical information and make it more understandable for our audience, after all, we are the experts and they likely aren’t. But having so much knowledge on the topics we discuss often makes simplifying the information more difficult, leading to technical jargon and a story that is not re-tellable after the presentation. This is known as the “curse of knowledge”, and there is a way to overcome it and still have a lasting impact.

I can highly recommend this Reliability resource

I have never met Rob, but in this social media era, I have come to feel that I not only understand his viewpoint, but also I have a feel for his style. I heartily approve of both. Rob's approach is open-ended and promotes the basic questioning about what new approaches can enhance what we have done so far without scrapping older practices that are still rock solid. Also Rob apparently applies this approach to selecting his guests, because they too reflect these strengths. They're also interesting which is another matter. I am happy to recommend Rob's content to all my Facility Operations colleagues!
