Doug Haugh’s mentoring series is all about problem solving—the never-ending pursuit of solutions to problems and ways to do things better. As an engineer, he brings a different perspective to entrepreneurship. He and Fran discuss the importance of establishing a personal mission, the pursuit of relevance, and getting feedback from diverse sources.

In this session, Doug shares the ways his engineering background has impacted his business career, and especially in his problem solving approach. The problems of a new business are different from those of an established, growing business, and Doug discusses the attitude and approach you need to tackle any issue.
