TPP Presents 5th in Strategic Thinking Brown Bag Series
Posted by The Patuxent Partnership Pax IIThe Strategic Thinking “Brown Bag” series continues with Dale Moore’s
fifth presentation scheduled for the Wyle Conference Center North at 11:30 – 1 p.m. Thursday May 30, 2013.
Mr. Moore serves as the Director of NAVAIR Strategic Initiative Coordination & Execution; Assistant to Commander NAWCAD for Strategic Operations. Participants bring their lunch and take part in discussions about the concept of strategic thinking. Discussions concern what strategic thinking is, how it is performed and how to apply it to assess the demands of the 21st Century environment.
The purpose of the series is to share and exchange Strategic Thinking perspectives between NAVAIR, NAWCAD and the Community, and to build an understanding of our future challenges and opportunities.
Discussions highlight insights and perspectives from multiple lenses to examine the future, and understand what it means today for collective plans for the future and ensure regional excellence in support of the warfighter.
Expect to participate and engage in an active dialogue at the edge, to share learning and new ideas about how the community can best work together, and to consider how we should be shaping events today in preparation for a highly complex and dynamic future.
