Interpretation of Quote

 “Without clear lines of communication, our ideas would stay within our own small

development teams instead of becoming mature products. While this is obvious to those

of us who have become experienced engineers, the real question is: Why is it lost to us

when we are engineering students?”

Akbar R Khan, Software Systems Engineer, USA,

“Good Communication Is Essential...” (2014)

My interpretation of this quote would be the paramount importance of "communication" and how without "it" we can have the most brilliant ideas but it would be "locked" within the walls of our minds stunting its possible growth to be a "reality", especially for engineers who often place the "technical" aspect above communication. This stresses why good communication is a must and why everyone should try to acquire / polish said skill.
