Value Proposition• A Systems Thinking Maturity Model is proposed.
– to classify the capabilities of SE practitioners, PSE’s, – to motivate PSE evolution to more effective levels.
• Concerned with thinking styles and learning styles of PSE’s. – should not be confused with any process maturity model.
• Expected to improve SE projects and Sys Realization projects as well as Operational Systems Effectiveness by 3X to 10X.
• Based on research findings regarding the brain, the mind, knowledge production and utilization, dissolution of cultural inhibitors and the impact of semantic network technology.
• This strawman version has seven levels of distinction across seven factors.
• Must yet be subjected to vetting of its embedded knowledge claims. • This presentation seeks to motivate dialogue and trial usages
toward that end.

Seven Key Attributes
• Field of discourse: spectrum of useable knowledge.• Dimension: the variety in the situation, e.g., Situation
Complexity Index, SCI.• Style: interpersonal, learning, risk aversion, etc.• Requisite Attitude: pessimist vs. optimist, future vs. past• Ethics: Quality, Productivity, Innovation:• EDAC: Error Detection and Correction behavior• Performance Improvement Potential, PIP: Ratio of
Exemplar Worth to Subject Worth (c.f. “Engineering Worthy Performance” by Thomas Gilbert, HRD Press)
