Abstract: The successful development of complex systems, such as aircraft, spacecraft, power plants, or computer networks, requires both the art and science of systems engineering. Technical Leadership, the art of systems engineering, balances broad technical domain knowledge, engineering instinct, problem solving, creativity, leadership, and communication to develop new missions and systems. Systems Management, the science of systems engineering, focuses on rigorously and efficiently managing the development and operation of complex systems. Developing systems engineering leaders who are highly competent in both technical leadership and systems management can be a challenge for all organizations. This presentation will discuss how NASA is addressing the challenge through its Systems Engineering Leadership Development Program.
