The SYSAM will bring you confidence as a technical leader because you will learn what to do, what not to do and why. You will be able to lead the systems engineering processes with a structured approach, using the NASA Systems Engineering Handbook as a reference. Bring people together, challenge them, convince them, inspire them and create an optimal vibe to lead your team to the best results for all your stakeholders. You will experience how the CAFCR framework supports you in applying sound systems engineering in a practical manner. This framework serves as a mindset that will get the most out of your leadership role and systems engineering processes. It will make it possible to drive for the best result for both the customer and your company.
Use a structured approach
You will learn how to apply a structured, step-by-step approach to scope your project and to enable short feedback loops to be both as efficient and effective in managing your risks. Being able to apply the knowledge from the NASA Systems Engineering Handbook on your own project, you will know what to do, when to do it and be able to explain why.
Continuously optimizing
Changing project conditions, customer requests and (intermediate) project results force you to continuously adapt. Using the CAFCR framework you will have the tool to balance between customer value, business value and your system design.
Influence stakeholders
A big part of your job as a systems engineer is to engage and convince all necessary stakeholders. Not all stakeholders immediately like your ideas. In this training, you will learn how to transfer resistance into buy-in and drive for decisions that are supported by all.
Lead your team
Delegation only helps if it leads to good results and growth in your team. You will learn the step-by-step approach to delegate successfully and use your team to its best extent. You also get the coaching skills you need to facilitate growth in your team.
Personal Leadership
