At the heart of this program was a 20-minute "workout" that integrated theory with practice. In its current form, the online course contains over 400 pages of commentary, stories and experiments, plus multiple videos.

For 5 years, he was part of a team at NASA (the USA Space Agency) whose mission was to develop the next generation of NASA Systems Engineers, who would have the responsibility of leading groups of discipline engineers. For example, mechanical, optical, electrical, and software engineers.

Stuart’s contribution was named, Applied Human Systems. His mandate was to assist these brilliant and accomplished thinkers in cultivating the simple yet difficult skills for managing their emotional intelligence, stress intelligence, conflict intelligence, and change intelligence. Each month he led a group class to share theory and general practices, and individual sessions for members of the training group and the senior SE mentors.

For NASA, every spacecraft or instrument project was a multistage process: research, design, construction, operation, and deconstruction. Each stage required a different set of attitudes, responses, and ways of relating.
