Across Another Man’s Desk
Those looking forward to careers in
business often associate the big accomplish
ments with men in private offices, who sit
back of massive desks. As a matter of fact,
there are many important men in an organi
zation like Westinghouse who seldom use
a desk or office at all. They achieve by
going to other men s offices. They are termed
cc sales engineers”.
George Westinghouse, for example, ren
dered his greatest service to industry and
mankind not merely by perfecting alter
nating current but by selling it—in the face
of the stiffest kind of opposition.
Authorities declared it was impracti
cal; laws were urged against it; yet the
salesman, Westinghouse, threw back of
alternating current, the strength of his
selling personality—with results that can
be witnessed in every branch of industrial
life today.
Following the example of its Founder,
the Westinghouse organization includes a
body of engineers whose work is to carry
electrical advancement into every nook and
corner of the world. They have sold elec
trification to the factories, the farms, the
homes, the railroads, the mines, the ships.
They are mechanical and electrical, engi
neers whose imaginations are fired, not
merely by engineering achievement, but
by the benefits from such achievement to
“the market”.
Engineering needs men of sales ability
and sales personality; and industry needs
to have them in engineering. Organiza
tions like Westinghouse, must sell before
they can serve.
