Network Centric Enablers
Operational art: the ability to
envision the actions required to
achieve a strategic end state
Architecture: the fundamental
organization of a system,
embodied in its components,
their relationships to each other
and the environment, and the
principles governing its design
and evolution.

SUGGESTIONS
 Speed and Agility
 Embrace Good Change and reward it – don’t drive it
out !
 Major issue is acquisition – buy what you want, not
what you get at the end of an outdated, long, weapon
systems model
 Help change the industry – military model. You are the
drivers of this model
Let Companies do what they do best
Understand Business – what drives parts of industry
NCOIC a good model
 Match the architectures, acquisition, outcomes and
rewards together

Napoleon on Time vs. Space
The definition of strategy is the
employment of both time and space. I
am less avaricious of space, as once
lost it may always be regained, whereas
time lost never.
