(The following is a letter from David Boyd, President, INCOSE LA Chapter to Robert Tarn, Trustee and Secretary of the Engineers’ Council of San Fernando Valley)

On behalf of the Los Angeles Chapter of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE), it is a great honor to recognize and support one of our own members, Mr. Stephen Guine, in his appointment as Board Member at Large for the Engineers’ Council of San Fernando Valley. In this capacity, we are pleased that Mr. Guine will represent our Los Angeles Chapter. Our Board of Directors (BoD) will work with Mr. Guine to determine the best way to foster and promote a mutually rewarding representation and partnership between our Chapter, our parent organization [INCOSE] and the Engineers’ Council. In the interim, we will ask Stephen to keep you informed of our events (local and international). Local chapter events include offerings such as monthly speaker meetings, quarterly tutorials and joint events with other local area technical societies. We would also like to hear about your technical needs, events and activities.
