As we exit the holiday spirit, I wanted to discuss another type of spirit that creates success within the workplace. Those of you who know me, I’m constantly saying “What’s up dawg?” or “It’s a beautiful day and so are you!” or you might see me end an email with “Go ESD!” There’s a reason for that. It’s called the Spirit of Entrepreneurship that resides at ESD.
The Spirit of Entrepreneurship allows a company to create (or invent) services that complement its core business offering. Within the engineering industry, intelligent building systems (IBS) integrates technology or what is known as The Internet of Things (IoT) with building automation systems, security, wireless technology, and other building components. When a company embraces and invests in technology consultants, the combination of the two talents (engineers and technology consultants) creates an offering that companies that do not embrace entrepreneurship can’t grasp.
