The Importance of Communication Skills for Engineers

 "Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a message doesn't even matter." 

Gilbert Amelio, President, and CEO of National Semiconductor Corp

Summary: 

Communication is the key to being a successful leader. One should be driven and concise to influence the audience. A leader should also possess excellent interpersonal skills, charisma, and determination. The message should be conveyed effectively for others to be influenced.
