About this listen

Embrace Open Engineering, and accelerate the design and manufacturing processes

Product development is a team sport, but most companies don't practice it that way. Organizations should be drawing on the creativity of engaged customers and outsiders, but instead they rely on the same small group of internal "experts" for new ideas. Designers and engineers should be connecting with marketing, sales, customer support, suppliers, and, most importantly, customers.

The Art of Product Design explains the rise of "Open Engineering", a way of breaking down barriers and taking advantage of web-based communities, knowledge, and tools to accelerate the design and manufacturing processes. It explains how to establish open flows of information inside and outside an organization, increasing the quality and frequency of input from different groups and stakeholders.

Open Engineering is crowdsourcing, it's collaborating, it's sharing and connecting. And it's helping a growing number of companies create better products faster than they ever imagined. The Art of Product Design reveals how to harness its power for your company.

Hardi Meybaum is the founder and CEO of GrabCad, the largest community of mechanical engineers and designers in the world.

Long form GrabCAD advert

This book does not discuss the art of product design in any shape or form. It's a long and winding advert for GrabCAD - complete with something what was like 45 minutes of GrabCAD user profile descriptions read out loud. Don't waste your time.

Just one long commerical for GrabCAD

I feel as is I should be paid for listening. Listened for 2 hours and it's just one big GrabCAD promotion. I was excited about the CEO's story, Product Design and Mechanical Engineering.

The entire book can be summed up with "For Design you must learn 3D CAD, use GrabCAD for that it's the future".
