The customer-employee relation team was very instrumental in it deliveries.

The deliverable that came for the initial strategy phase cause the team the realization of not focusing on business but of the employee and the customers.

After looking through my options and speaking to my partner I eventually gave up and chose to research a topic I had much more interest in. I ended up choosing commercial aviation and more specifically the selection process in which materials are chosen for the wings used in the commercial aircraft. With the goal of becoming an aerospace engineer, I felt this topic was something I could get involved with on higher level and it would definitely help me put more effort into my research and in return I would achieve something out of it.

When there is a start of a project during the middle it failed at what result was not the correct one and there is no chance of restarting and the project is stuck forever with no possibility of never correcting it. There are always positive and negative outcomes in every situation. To give up or restart is up to the good minded to correct what they have done wrong.
