The INCOSE-LA 2010 Challenge: Another Year of Continuing Excellence PDF Print E-mail
Written by Rosalind Lewis   
Greetings, INCOSE-LA. Let me begin by stating how honored I am to be selected as the 2010 President. I consider it a privilege to lead this great organization, which as a result of the dedicated leaders and volunteers before me, has achieved much. I am also humbled as your new leader. Working with the Board of Directors over the past year, I have seen how this Chapter, which I will call a system, has sought to understand the needs of its membership, has considered many events and activities to design learning and networking opportunities consistent with those needs, and has implemented these offerings with thoughtful attention to detail, born from a commitment to continuous improvement. Finally, I am hopeful that this year will continue the excellence and traditions that have garnered us recognition and many awards for our high performance. My hope is grounded in my belief that the work we do as systems engineers to address today's challenges — challenges made complex by the clashing of technological, organizational, societal, and economic factors — is more important now than ever. To that end, I invite you to seek out opportunities, existing and new, to participate actively in INCOSE-LA, and to contribute to making this one of our best years ever.
 
INCOSE-LA 2009: A Year of Continuing Excellence PDF Print E-mail
Written by Eric Belle   

As we close out the year and transition to the 2010 Board of Directors, it is fitting that we pause to reflect upon the successes of 2009 and recognize that they can be attributed to a long line of dedicated leaders and volunteers. The awarding at the International Symposium (IS09) in Singapore of the 2008 President’s Award for the Most Outstanding Chapter was the culmination of strong leadership and dedication over many years. In choosing us for this award, the Member Board cited our consistent high performance, which has resulted in Gold Circle Awards for almost every year since 2002. I consider myself fortunate to have been the President of record who accepted the award on behalf of the Chapter and wish to salute John David Boyd for his leadership during 2008 and his Board of Directors (BoD) for their strong support.
