What Winning (Can) Look Like: Utility of Special Operations in Compound Security Competition (Pre-Recorded)

During his recent tenure as the president of the Joint Special Operations University at U.S. Special Operations Command, Dr. Wilson led a study and initiative titled “SOF Next”. His presentation will focus on what SOF can contribute: “left of conflict,” “left of bang,” “below the threshold of armed conflict,” or in “the gray zone”. What does successful campaigning (i.e., the conduct and sequencing of logically-linked military initiatives aimed at advancing well-defined, strategy-aligned priorities over time) look like? How do we best cooperate and collaborate with partners in order to deter armed conflict?

This session will be pre-recorded
