IOP Pritzker Fellow Lisa Franchetti on "You Can’t Surge Trust"

THIS SEMINAR IS OPEN TO CURRENT UCHICAGO STUDENTS ONLY

Tuesday, March 31

3:30-4:45pm

Military leaders learn the importance of building relationships with each other and their international peers early on. From Service Academies and War Colleges to Exchange Programs and Bi/Multi-lateral joint operations, to training and exercises and one-on-one engagements and symposia, military leaders lay the foundation for long term relationship stability and interoperability in peace, crisis and war. But this doesn’t happen automatically. What does a military global engagement strategy look like? How do you align it with broader U.S. priorities, and what happens when they change? Most importantly, how do you assess its effectiveness? Let’s look at the differences between Europe, Asia and the Middle East and discuss the stresses and strains on these relationships as political priorities and policies change.

Special Guest: Johannes J. Gonzalez, U.S. Naval Forces Europe-Africa Fleet Master Chief
