Army Design Methodology (ADM)
The relevance of the Army Design Methodology (ADM) to the operations process cannot be overstated. It is important to note, from the onset, that ADM “is part of a continuing effort focused on improving the critical and creative thinking abilities of leaders and teams to understand and solve problems” (Department of the Army, 2015). Towards this end, ADM enables staffs and commanders to not only visualize and understand, but also outline and assess operations. From time to time, staffs and commanders encounter situations and scenarios that are largely uncertain or unfamiliar (Naveh, 2009). According to the Department of the Army (2015), when uncertainty reigns supreme, staffs and commanders could feel overwhelmed. ADM comes in handy in such instances. In basic terms, “by first framing an operational environment and associated problems, ADM enables commanders and staffs to think about the situation before developing ways to solve those problems” (Department of the Army, 2015). It is on this basis that staffs and commanders become better prepared to formulate courses of action to rein in the problems highlighted.
As a future sergeant major, my role in the ADM is likely to be well-pronounced. This is more so the case when it comes to conceptual planning. I will most likely make use of ADM as a tool in seeking to visualize as well as develop understanding of various kinds of problems so as to design or formulate an operational approach that makes it possible to overcome the prevailing concerns. Thus, thanks to ADM, my thinking about various scenarios is likely to be shaped by a well-defined framework that enables me to come up with a sound operational approach as a consequence of the proper conceptualization of not only the problem, but also the operational environment (in terms of understanding the present scenario in relation to the desired/future operational environment).

Why is Army Design Methodology (ADM) important to the operations process? How do you see your role in the ADM process as a future CSM/SGM? ADM in the operations process The ADM is a technique involving the application of innovative, critical thinking for understanding, visualizing, and describing new issues and means of resolving them (“ADP 5-0…” 2012). It encompasses interrelated thinking tasks which facilitate abstract planning and making decisions. ADM first frames

It is now early September 1942. You are a staff officer with the Combined Chiefs of Staff, European Theater of Operations. As a recent CGSOC graduate, your supervisor has tasked you to review the Norfolk Group's plan and related documents (Parts 2 and 3). The Combined Chiefs will meet soon to be briefed on the planning thus far to advise President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill on the status of
Security Technologies and Methodology in the United States Air Force The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of security technologies and methodology in the U.S. Air Force. This work will first determine uncertainties and calculate the risk for each threat. This work will additionally identify any needed controls including technical, administrative and managerial controls. Finally, this work will describe the network security methodology and technology used in
However, these poor, landless and mercenary men, despite the fact they worked for hire still frequently exhibited selfless behavior for their fellow soldiers in the face of adversity, such as at Valley Forge. One of the most unique aspects of this book is its methodology. It attempts to integrate evidence about battles, armaments, military technology and the history of the early army into the greater social and political history of
Hearing loss is very case specific because one person who has hearing loss or impairment may be able to hear certain sounds or be completely deaf. Impairment entails something is not working as well as it should but there may still be some basic functioning. Hearing loss can go by many terms such as deaf, deafness, or hard of hearing. All could be one and the same situation but as
