Human Terrain System

Cultural Expert

My position involved daily interaction between US and host nation residents in Iraq/Afghanistan.  My primary function was to support the command's mission and stated objectives.  These objectives required me to partner with not only locals, but leaders and military and police members of the host nation.  At the same time, I had to navigate military and US based aid organizations (including Dept of State),  At the highest level, I directly advised senior commanders (often leading units of 5000 people or more) their staff and enablers on how to better achieve lasting, sustainable change within the host nation government.

BAE Systems

Research Manager

Duties: Provide advanced level HUMINT Operations training and instruction to Iraqi forces. The program of instruction was designed to "Train the Trainer" for various Iraqi governmental agencies. The program was designed in the US by trainers not familiar with Iraqi culture. This lack of awareness created a need for me to re-shape the training into more culturally appropriate blocks. This redesign allowed for greater fidelity within the "train the trainer" model. My changes were based upon an immediate assessment of the academy's ability. 100% of my recommendations were accepted and implemented. Upon completion of the initial training phase: I evaluated/mentored the new trainers as they taught a new class of Iraqi Intelligence officers. I further improved training by providing HUMINT subject matter expertise (SME) to fellow US instructors associated with the contract. I added previously unused multi-media techniques to improve the retention of the lessons. This use of multi-media improved the comprehension of translated (English to Arabic) lessons by over 50%. Among the duties listed I was also tasked to improve the established final exercise. Students were taught how to develop their own lessons and exercises. My work was recognized when by the commandant of the Iraqi intelligence academy noting my changes had vastly improved the training for all Iraqis in the school. Among the multifaceted lessons developed where classes on developing sources, tradecraft, communication plans, field expedient techniques, limited interrogation techniques, surveillance, counterintelligence methods, analysis (including a variety of traditional tools) production of products, creation of briefing, actual briefing, dissemination and a variety of control techniques to help lower echelon collection teams to better work under an umbrella concept.

Acct Manager

Education, State and Local government) Duties: Work as a call center sales representative.  Outbound/Inbound calls were processed to develop business within the small government and education spheres.  I was recognized immediately for my ability to maintain high call volume and logging more call hours than my peers.  This recognition led to me being a model for all new account managers.  Additionally, I was allowed to develop/mentor other struggling account managers.  My supervisor placed me in a non-traditional role as a supervisor of training for his select group of managers.  My work with these managers universally improved their production.  I was designated to examine other call centers within the company to replicate similar results.  My assessment allowed me to create a simple program that created a tool for existing management to improve productivity within their call center.  My work with these other call centers displayed marked improvement for which I was recognized.  After analyzing the sections, I used basic approaches I developed while working as an instructor in the US Army.  These military based established practices were foreign to the different call center leaders.  By highlighting a few minor changes the existing leaders were able to improve the call volume and hours logged.  Following this temporary assignment, team leaders continued to approach me for new ideas and concepts to maintain or improve their team's performance.  . Beginning/Ending
