Acerca de los autores

Chester D. Rowe's self-reliance and problem-solving abilities emerged early when, at age 14, he was given some parts for a ham radio receiver. To complete this project, he taught himself calculus and electronics. By the time his father died, when he was 16, Chet had designed the circuits for and then built this receiver using parts from discarded TVs. His father's death pushed Chet into early adulthood and responsibilities to help his raise his siblings. After overcoming 16 years of financial and other obstacles, Chet earned a BS in Nuclear Engineering and an AS in Physics/General Studies. In addition, Chet has completed training equivalent to a degree in Electrical Engineering. Chet recently retired after over 40 years in the commercial nuclear industry. Chet is the creator of the Cause Road Map� Taxonomy and trained in Kepner-Tregoe, TapRoot�, PII, MORT, and other cause investigation and problem-solving techniques. As a result, he has been involved in more cause investigations than he can remember. Chet has an extensive background in: • Quality Assurance (QA). • Corrective Action Programs (CAP). • Engineering at five Nuclear Power plants. Chet has been a: • QA Engineer. • Lead Auditor. • Level III Inspector. • QA and a QC Supervisor. • Certified Quality Engineer. • Corrective Action Program Manager. • Corrective Action Program Coordinator/Engineer. • Equipment Performance Monitoring/Plant Engineer. • Management Consultant and Root Cause Training Instructor. • Co-founder and Vice Chairman of the Central PA Section of the American Nuclear Society (ANS). Prior to his commercial nuclear experience, Chet served in the US Navy aboard three submarines, completing qualification as an Engineering Watch Supervisor (EWS) - equivalent to a Reactor Operator at a commercial nuclear plant. He achieved the rank of First Class Petty Officer (EM1-SS) in under four years, received several Navy commendations, and was recommended for a billet aboard the NR-1 deep submergence research submarine and a limited duty officer (LDO) commission (both of which he declined in favor of returning to civilian life and college).
