Strategic Broadening: The Berkeley Experience

摘要

The 2-week University of California Berkeley Strategic Broadening Seminar addresses General Milley's concern for fostering innovation through its immersive introduction to Starfish Leadership, visits to industry innovators, and a diverse curriculum. Army leaders must implement the principles of the starfish philosophy in their organizations to empower members and remain agile. Interactions with numerous Silicon Valley companies and leaders provided insight on the characteristics of an innovative environment. The seminar curriculum is full of lessons and activities delivered by accomplished faculty members who empower participants with unique tools and ideas to improve their organizations and leaders. We recommend that leaders continue to attend this annual seminar to learn the ideology and become a driving force for innovation in the Army.
