STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. -- International students participating in the Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical Training School's (NAVSCIATTS) Strategic Leaders International Course and representatives from NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center, both located in South Mississippi, design a prototype to address providing potable water to remote areas during a "Design and Rapid Prototyping" exercise, April 3.
Caroline Flagiello, founder and chief executive officer of Akin Inc. led the lecture and practical exercises which focused on the "outside the box thinking" required in zero-to-one product development. Zero-to-one represents the phase of a product’s existence between the idea and the first shippable version.
During this SLIC iteration, which features senior level officers and government officials from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cape Verde, Cyprus, Benin, Ecuador, Ghana, Croatia, Jordan, Mongolia, Mauritius, Oman, Mozambique, Nigeria, the Philippines, and Thailand, Stennis Space Center (SSC) leadership provided future leaders within the organization to contribute to the rapid prototyping development exercises. Casey Wheeler, aerospace engineer project manager, Brittany Bouche NASA deputy chief, SSC operations and management, and Samson Cantu, SSC logistics officer, participated in the lecture series, offering knowledge and experiences gained throughout their careers with NASA.
SLIC is four-week in-resident course designed to build partner capacity by offering senior military leaders (05-07 level) and senior government officials of partner nations new perspectives, methodologies, and opportunities for thinking strategically and for designing strategies that successfully address complex challenges.
