Poster: Development of Managerial Skills in Engineering University Students in the Context of Modern Industrial Revolutions

Abstract

AbstractThe paper theoretically substantiates the need for managerial skills development in engineering students. The paper is focused on the basic traits necessary for the successful formation of managerial skills in engineering students, the impact of gender and “emotional quotient” (EQ) on leadership style, and the development of “hard” and “soft” skills. For a manager, there are no absolutely bad or good personal qualities, but their totality is a manageable resource. The gender factor here has a significant impact on management style and quality. Training programs based on students’ personal characteristics and specific needs, a combination of coaching, training and individual classes guarantee the required level of managerial knowledge and skills. The emphasis is on the fact that training technologies and coaching methods are effective for the formation and development of managerial skills among students of engineering specialties. The authors believe that under current conditions, a greater emphasis in management practice should be placed on innovative principles and methods related to the formation and development of neuroplasticity, Neuro Science, EQ, etc. in engineering students.KeywordsManagementEngineering managerCoachingTrainingEmotional quotient (EQ)Hard skillsSoft skillsGender specificity of leadership styleDevelopment of managerial skills
