| dc.description.abstract | The naval officer of 2020 must be different than the naval officer of today. The environment has changed and the military and the naval service must change with it. For the naval service to be effective and relevant in the dynamic and uncertain environment of the future, the Navy must be fast, responsive to change as measured in seconds and minutes rather than the hours and days of the past. This necessitates that the combat forces, at least, within the Navy be organized in a very flat hierarchy. There will be little or no time for information to flow up and down the chain of command. Decisions are going to have to be made at the lowest level possible. Consequently, the Navy win require officers capable of making decisions and officers capable of leading decision makers. The intent of this thesis is to frame a dialogue about the future naval officer by creating a vision of the naval officer of 2020 and presenting recommendations for the development and management of these officers. | en_US |
