Steven Schmidt, Vice President and Chief Engineer, Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin Company
On the 100th anniversary of Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin Company, Steve Schmidt calls on approximately 3,500 engineers to support the helicopter maker’s products and future developments. “About 3,000 of those engineers report directly to me,” he explained. “Probably another 500 or so are from other Lockheed Martin business areas. They’re well integrated into our team, and we’re all supporting the business together.” Schmidt observed, “I tell people ‘always build your network.’ You never know who’s going to help you.
