Radio Leadership™: June 2009
http://radioleadership.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. New York, NY. I will be taking a break from Radio Leadership for the next year. I’ll be completing my doctorate, focusing my dissertation on what I’m calling the paradox of organizational vision and converting this work into a book.

The Devil and Development. On fragile states, foreign assistance and stability operations. Thursday, March 19, 2009. Chief of Mission Authority, Lockheed Martin Analysis. Many point to the U.S. ambassador's Chief of Mission authority as a natural place to rest interagency coordination. A recent Lockheed Martin analysis of AFRICOM's roles and missions lays out more baldly than usual the reach and limits of CoM authority. Tuesday, March 3, 2009.

https://pnsrblog.wordpress.com/2011/03/10/whither-“whole-of-government”
The PNSR Community Blog on National Security Transformation. Whither whole of government? March 10, 2011. Some first-rate commentators have questioned the whole of government ethos we are well-known for espousing. Gordon Adams at the Stimson Center says. Seems there are too many agencies, too many programs, too many turfs, to do a coherent whole of government approach to intervention or foreign policy decisions in general. Put that way, these arguments are right. When you’ve experienced the despair o...
