Neglect of Industrial Engineering in Management Literature
As I am going through the book on Management by Koontz, O'Donell and Weihrich, the thought comes to me that they should have covered industrial engineering and tools and techniques in it in many places. Similarly, many management books have not included any reference to industrial engineering. Industrial engineering profession needs to correct this.

Industrial Engineers in McKinsey
McCoy, Faulkner Melissa
E-mail: melissa.mccoy@edi.gatech.edu
Class: ‘89 (BS)
Comments: Upon graduation, I accepted a job with Freudenberg-NOK (a tier I automotive supplier) in GA. I met my husband there. We were then transferred to the corporate headquarters in MI. I then worked for Chrysler Corp. After returning to GA in 1996, I went to work for GA Tech. I have spent most of my career consulting on Mfg. Systems Improvements. After the first of the year I will be joining McKinsey & Company as a Mfg. Specialist based out of Atlanta.

The complete, untold story of McKinsey & Co.'s founding father
This is the authoritative and insightful account of Marvin Bower, who helped found McKinsey & Co. in 1939 and served as managing director of the firm from 1950 to 1967, and of how Bower, an attorney, took a concept known as industrial engineering and transformed it into what we now know as management consulting. As Dick Cavanagh, now CEO of the Conference Board, said, Bower "didn't just preach values, he practiced them. . . . He was a teacher as well as a leader."

IE Career - Beginning
According to me IEs should first try to do something good in technology, then IE proper which human effort engineering, and then as they gain understanding of management issues tackle management issues in their career.
what I mean is a beginning must be made all IEs in technical area which they studied for four years. Then combining the technical with IE is next step. Management and business process issues have to be the third step. While senior IEs in the dept. may tackle management and business process issues freshers have to be put throught technlogy - IE route.
