How Do You Know When You Need a Systems Engineer? A great, yet simple question! What benefits can you expect - how to qualify on an empirical base? And, what does it require to integrate her/him into the #organization to deliver that benefit? For choosing a Systems Engineer, not only the technical qualifications for the concrete role assignment will be substantial. As Suz Miller, Jeannine Siviy and Dr. John Wood from the Software Engineering Institute | Carnegie Mellon University lay out, you also need to mind the project’s environmental factors, for which I find this split-up (in short) very helpful: - Scope, Clarity, Size, Complexity - Decision Participation - Workload & Ticket Management The presenters give some helpful extra side references for further discovery: - the 3 C’s as “soft skills” to augment the “hard” (technical) skills: #Collaboration, #Communication, #Conflict Resolution. - a descriptive standard for the software lifecycle, that hints at the needed qualifications for a Systems Engineer, is #ISO15288 (System & Software Engineering - System Lifecycle Processes) - #Problemsolving techniques needed by Systems Engineers include not only the #5Whys or #Fishbone diagrams, a nice addition are Causal Loop Diagrams, displaying cause/effect relationships in graph-style connectivity (Kumu was mentioned as a tool in the area). - Bridging the gaps between role, process, and technical challenges in an #organization is touched in the recommended book “The Fifth Discipline” by Dr Peter Senge, generally about the “learning organisation” (not only for Systems Engineers). #systemsengineering #worktrends https://lnkd.in/evkft7xj

Attention #cybersecurity firms! The government of #Rwanda has published an excellent opportunity to conduct an assessment and propose a design, architecture and technical specs for a national SOC and disaster recovery site. Please share with qualified and interested parties in your networks. We are pleased to support the Rwanda Information Society Authority (RISA) and NCSA in this effort. #africa #cyberresilience #developingcountries #eastafrica #digitaldevelopment #digitalacceleration #digitaleconomy #soc #disasterrecovery #incidentresponse #incidentmanagement
