National Security Recruiting: Joint and Interagency
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to provide analysis that demonstrates a link between a future issue to the military (recruiting and national security professional development) and its impact on the culture of the Army and the military in general. The recent release of the Project on National Security Reform Achieving the quality future talent for our national security requirements will demand a change in "business as usual" processes within our government. Developing future leaders within the national security environment demands a concerted effort at achieving a quality initial entry pool. We cannot continue to rely upon chance or inexperienced political appointees for successful leadership within the varied departments of our national security framework. This paper argues for not only consideration of a Joint recruiting effort but also the integration of interagency recruiting efforts led by the US Army through a leadership examination of whom we serve, what is our core strength; our core score, or current assessment; and actions we should take today.
