As Engineers are "minorities" in many large corporations an appreciation of career development in these companies is useful for MIT students and graduates. How do large corporation functions, like human relations, work? HR's main role at GE is staff development and succession planning. GE is considered by many to be a "meritocracy", but despite many attempts, in the past it had very few women or minority leaders. Given GE's influence in the field, an appreciation of how it works may help graduates in the future. Art Chen (MIT EE SB, MS, PhD), former senior executive at GE, in Medical Systems and Information Systems, has been involved in startups and technology transfer from universities to industry.
