The Decision Making Model: The OODA loop -- Observe, Orient, Decide and Act -- is a four-step approach to decision-making that focuses on filtering available information, putting it in context and quickly making the most appropriate decision, while also understanding that changes can be made as more data becomes available. The OODA loop developed by military strategist and United States Air Force Colonel John Boyd. He applied the concept to the combat operations process, often at the operational level during military campaigns. It is often applied to understand commercial operations, Businesses and learning processes.

The OODA loop is a decision-making model developed by military strategist and United States Air Force Colonel John Boyd. Does it work for our career? Guess it does. What is the OODA Loop Model? Observe – collect current information from as many sources as practically possible. Orient – analyze this information, and use it to update your current reality. Decide – determine a course of action. Act – follow through on your decision.

In the aftermath of WWII, there were fragile trends toward the unification of the communications intelligence (COMINT) activities of the military services. Under the Department of Defense, the Stone Board, led by Rear Admiral Earl Everett Stone, USN, was established to make recommendations for reforming and reorganizing military cryptologic activities. The services were split between unification and keeping the status quo, but ultimately the Secretary of Defense determined that unification needed to happen. The Armed Forces Security Agency (AFSA), NSA’s direct predecessor organization, was created on May 20, 1949, with RADM Stone named as its first director. AFSA nominally accomplished the merger of the COMINT processing activities of the Army and Navy organizations. It was an incomplete but important step in the movement toward the establishment of a national cryptologic effort. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gcXRDzmZ

We provide enterprise #IT solutions to U.S. military services to create unified, joint networks that get our Warfighters the data they need. But the services have their own role to play in IT, so how do we work together? United States Marine Corps Col. Jared C. Voneida, DISA Pacific commander, explains this relationship with the analogy of Wi-Fi in his home: We act as the internet service provider, taking care of what happens outside the house, and the services act as the homeowner, managing what happens inside the house.

“The value of time, that is of being a little ahead of your opponent, often provides greater advantage than superior numbers or greater resources.” – Sun Tzu Why Onebrief? Onebrief saves time. Without innovation, there is a finite limit to the amount of time that a staff can harvest through training and experience. Onebrief’s approach to planning shatters the limits that constrained military planners for decades, creating opportunities to significantly outpace adversaries. Doctrinally, the value of Onebrief lies in its ability to allow commanders to increase tempo without incurring the traditional associated risks to both force and mission. On 11 & 12 September 2024, Onebrief will be at the Iron Mike Conference Center on Fort Liberty. Onebrief was created by military planners for military planners. I would love to show you why so many organizations are turning to Onebrief to revolutionize their planning and staff workflows. Check out the broader Onebrief impact at https://lnkd.in/dRA4J9Gz

The #OODA loop (observe, orient, decide, act) is a decision-making model developed by United States Air Force Colonel John Boyd. He applied the concept to the combat operations process, often at the operational level during military campaigns. It is often applied to understand commercial operations and learning processes. The approach explains how agility can overcome raw power in dealing with human opponents. As can be seen from the diagram, the OODA loop includes continuous collection of feedback and observations. This enables late commitment, which is an important element of agility. This is in contrast to e.g. the PDCA cycle which requires early commitment (the first steps are Plan and Do). Can you relate ?

I look at all six of these efforts and it's easy to see, (Respectfully) minimal input and participation by young SMs was exercised. Young SMs' quality of life is more than "gathering data" and "Wi-Fi". Also, Quality Housing (on post) has been a major issue for over 20 years. Are these two challenges to big, ambiguous, or challenging to correct? The other four efforts mostly have qualitative and quantitative actions and goals. 🤔
"Early in my tenure as secretary of defense, I made taking care of our people a top priority," Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III wrote in his Sept. 13 memorandum "Our Enduring Duty to America's Service Members and Their Families." Austin announced new initiatives meant to ensure the well-being and success of service members so they can better focus on their part of the defense mission. "Doing right by our all-volunteer joint force and their families is a core readiness issue. Taking care of our people is fundamental to the department's ability to recruit and retain the most talented American patriots and to ensure that the U.S. military remains the most lethal fighting force on the planet — and it is simply the right thing to do."

The U.S. government needs to be quicker about rolling out new integrated deterrence efforts, the Pentagon’s top military officer says, as global tensions have risen since the Biden administration made the concept a key part of its national-security strategy. “What is old is new again. What is new is further complicated by emerging domains and technology. We needed a deterrence strategy to be integrated by design to deal with these modern challenges, and I would argue we need to be faster at developing and applying our new framework,” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. CQ Brown said Wednesday during U.S. Strategic Command’s Deterrence Symposium. Audrey Decker has more at: https://lnkd.in/ddVuyHXH #DOD #StrategicCommand #Defense
