Mastering Human Infrastructure Seminar 2016

This course is sponsored by the ASCE Committee on Sustainability, who has adopted Human Infrastructure as priority to help advance ASCE's Strategic Priority of Sustainability.

The seminar will offer several practical tools to help engineers navigate the complexities and difficulties of overcoming conflict and building trusting relationships that will produce a better quality project. These tools will be based on using a sustainability lens. With those tools, attendees will then develop their own personal strategy to overcome a current challenge. As the course proceeds, attendees will have a chance to share elements of their strategy with classmates to receive peer feedback. By the end of the seminar, they will not only have many tools they can use immediately in all aspects of their job, but will also have a peer reviewed strategy that they can use to start solve a difficult problem when they get back to the office.
