Project design - turning theory into practice: The Reverse Serve

摘要

Aimed at junior engineers Andrew Briggs encourages a structured approach when trying to assimilate design instructions. The 'reverse serve' method of working enables an inexperienced designer to make a valuable contribution to design development and creativity by using their initiative in a structured way. It helps to 'give the boss the answer' rather than simply following instructions. The method enables an inexperienced designer to form a clear vision of a task allocated to them. Also, it helps the supervising engineer provide support.
