Innovation • Redefining the process, the product and expected outcome to meet a different need.

• The overall effort is a tenuous balance of vision, art, science, collaboration & synchronization.

“...the disruptive process becomes the scaffolding for the enterprise’s approach to innovation. Through shaping a disruptive

process, the enterprise answers the question, What kind of interactions do we

want to create?”

“Tom Peters”

Unified Command Plan 2006 (UCP 06):

“… functionally responsible to the Chairman for leading joint concept development and experimentation (CDE)

…Developing combined operational warfighting

concepts and integrating multinational and

interagency warfighting transformation efforts with joint CDE in coordination

with other combatant commands.”

As DOD’s Experimentation Enterprise Lead Organization, we produce three

things:

Joint Concepts

• Major Combat Operations

• Stabilization, Security, Transition and Reconstruction Operations

• Joint Command and Control

• Joint Urban Operations• Shaping
