Topical Engineering Issues for MBA Dissertation Topic

jamiedgwilson
Hi All, I'm currently studying for an MBA and trying to determine a suitable Dissertation topic. I have some areas within my own organisation that could potentially be used but I wanted to get input from a wider range of engineers to hopefully make any research I do relevant to more people. Clearly it needs to be related to a business topic but I want the link to engineering to be as strong as possible to make it interesting to me. 


I'd love to hear what you all see as the engineering industries current business related challenges or anything you wish you'd have the time to research more on.


Appreciate any inputs. 


Thanks


n.b. For context, I've an MEng in Aero-Mechanical Engineering, Chartered with IMechE, and around 10yrs industry experience across Defence, Nuclear and Automotive industries.

    Hi Andy, 


    Thanks for your reply and thoughts. I've been refining my initial ideas and settled (just now anyway) on something that's not directly engineering related but impacts the wider business. The topic I'm now considering is to understand when business efficiency measures (which so many organisations are relying on right now to survive / keep share holders happy) become ineffective as they reduce employee engagement significantly, subsequently reducing productivity. I'm still in the refining phase so always open to feedback and suggestions ?


    Thanks
