David Goldberg talks about seven skills that engineers are missing, skills that are essential for them to be effective in the 21st century. • • David E. Goldberg is CEO of ThreeJoy Associates, Inc., a consulting and coaching firm, and he also co-directs iFoundry at the UIUC, a programmatic incubator dedicated to the transformation of engineering education. In 2004, he co-founded ShareThis, a web startup with offices in Palo Alto, Cincinnati, and New York. Trained as a civil engineer at the University of Michigan, Dr. Goldberg is perhaps best known for his work on genetic algorithms. In 2006, he co-founded and bootstrapped a series of workshops on philosophy and engineering that continue to this day, and in 2010 he edited the collected volume Philosophy and Engineering: An Emerging Agenda (with Ibo van de Poel, Springer, 2010). • http://www.threejoy.com/ • • This talk was recorded at TEDxUIUC 2011 (02/19/11), which was organized at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign by a group of students led by Cristian Mitreanu. • http://www.tedxuiuc.com • • About TEDx, x = independently organized event • • In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations) • http://www.ted.com
