Tuesday, July 24, 2018  |  2:00pm - 3:00pm ET

Readiness is a hotly debated topic across the DoD, with differing opinions and approaches on how to measure, apply, and tackle it. 

Ultimately, improving readiness and, in effect, our capabilities towards supporting the missions of today and tomorrow, a consistent approach to readiness will be required to enable our future forces to operate under changing geopolitical conditions.

Join us for a Webcast where a panel of military leaders will discuss their views on readiness, as well as a demonstrated approach towards evaluating and improving readiness across the Navy, Army, and Air Force.

Additional topics will include:

  • creating a framework for strategically defining readiness by service area
  • evaluating courses of action
  • addressing resourcing demands and constraints

To access the webcast, we just need a little information about you:
