Connecting the dots - SE beyond technology

Talking about System Engineering, our engineering mind tells us things aabout technologies. And technological systems. Things to be built.

Remember the INCOSE definition? "The artful process to bring something about"? "Any of all processes, people, products, resources, etc."?

Systems are view points. And we have to cope with many of these and, to our surprise, these are not only different in content, but as well equipped with different mind sets to be handled. And note necessarily related to technology.

That brings various challenges and implications with it. And we have to cope with them. One of them is how to transform the emotional left side into facts and figures on the right side.

In this session we are doing the upfront work by collecting the (human) big picture dots and decomposing them into smaller, digestable pieces to be able to connect them.

We'll get them all. And you will be surprised, what Systems Engineering really means.
