Advanced Cyber/IO, Balance, Capabilities-Force Structure, ICT-IT, Multinational Plus, Policies-Harmonization, Processing, Reform, Strategy-Holistic Coherence, TribesThis graphic was inspired by both the work of LtCol Gary Beaver, USA (Ret), then in Bosnia, and the efforts of the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to create a global inter-agency information sharing capability. We still need this, at the global as well as the regional levels.
Graphic: Information Sharing–Going for the Green
Advanced Cyber/IO, ICT-IT, Innovation, Languages-Translation, Leadership-Integrity, Multinational Plus, Processing, Strategy-Holistic Coherence, TribesWe've formed the conclusion over time that leaders spend too much time on the 20% that is contentious or worrysome, and not nearly enough time on the 80% that is of common interest but perhaps not controversial. We have all failed for decades, since the value of information as a tangible and intangible “good” has been recognized, to create an information commons. This graphic, first created for the Peacekeeping Intelligence Conference in Sweden in December 2004. The time has come to unity humanity with information shared and sense made, and in so doing, to harness the wealth-creating power of the human brain in all its forms.
Graphic: Simplified World Conflict Map
Strategy-Holistic Coherence, ThreatsThis chart drew on Berto Jongman's World Conflict & Human Rights Map. It focuses only on armed conflict. While there are many fine books that looks at “State of the World” and State of this and that, we still do not have a single map or display that properly represents the ten high-level threats to humanity, within which just two–Inter-State Conflict and Civil War–are actually “armed” conflict. Everything else is genocide under another name, including poverty, disease, and proliferation for profit.
Graphic: Global Threats to Local Survival (1990′s)
Advanced Cyber/IO, ThreatsThis graphic was created after being inspired by Berto Jongman's brilliant World Conflict & Human Rights Map, a document that went out of creation in 2003 after he joined his national intelligence service. His contribution is sorely missing and much needed again, only with an expansion to respect the profound wisdom contained in the Report of the United Nations High-Level Panel on Threats, Challenge, and Change, A more secure world: Our shared responsibility. LtGen Dr. Brent Scowcroft, USAF (Ret), was the U.S. member of the Panel.
