Contrast of “when the Canvas is Blank” and “so you want to be a system engineer”

The two talks were given by Gentry Lee at different occasions. Although the two public speeches touch on systems engineers, they have different topics of discussion. In the speech “when the Canvas is Blank” Lee talks of the role that any engineer play in an organization although his major emphasis on a system engineer. He talks of the engineer being in a position to answer three important questions; when, why and what. An engineer should have all the scientific facts concerning the tasks he is mandated to perform at any given situation. Understanding the content of the all the activities that the engineer performs are very crucial. An engineer should be in a position to understand the work mandated to him. He also addresses the ability of any engineer to understand all the partials and challenges involved in the engineering work they are assigned to perform. An engineer should be able to estimate the quantity of work they are supposed to perform before starting.

On the contrary, in the speech “so you want to be a system engineer”, Lee emphasizes on the quality or professional behaviors system engineers should demonstrate. System engineers should demonstrate intellectual curiosity. They should always adventure into different challenges involving system engineer’s work. System engineers should always expect changes that come with uncertainties. Always a system engineer should demonstrate the ability to solve uncertainties and not be moved changes but embrace changes. A system engineer always stays connected with other engineers and other professionals for improvement and criticism. A system engineer should be able to communicate effectively confident of what their point of argument and should not fear challenges directed towards their duty. And lastly, a system engineer should the process that system engineers go through.
