Technical Leadership Development Program - Year 2

Abstract

In Year 2 of SE TLP, the team developed the curriculum architecture which serves as the proposed architecture for a future DAU SYS 350 SE Technical Leadership course. The SYS 350 architecture is comprised of three loosely coupled lenses the systems (SYS 350A), business (SYS 350B), and enterprise (SYS 350C) lenses. Each of these lenses contains technical leadership focus areas, which reflect the key leadership learning areas believed critical in the context of defense systems acquisition. Additional Systems lens architectural detail was developed which included SYS 350A Syllabus storyboards, specific learning modules for each focus area, lecture topics, case studies, leadership threads focusing on personal and group effectiveness , and group-based in-class project work. The preceding artifacts were used to support the development of a baseline SYS 350A Instructor Pilot course which was conducted with OSD and DAU professionals at DAU Ft Belvoir, VA and subsequent to the SYS 350A Instructor pilot , a SYS 350A Student Pilot was conducted with US Army systems engineering professionals at the US Army Aberdeen Proving Grounds. Additional RT4 Y2 research work included the initial syllabus development for the SYS350B Business lens.
