Military organizations are, by their very nature, resistant to
change. This is, in no small part, due to the fact that the cost of
error is exceedingly high. Change, particularly change that may
affect the relationships among organizations and between commanders
and their subordinates presents significant risks and generates
considerable concern.The explosion of information technologies has
set in motion a virtual tidal wave of change that is in the process
of profoundly affecting organizations and individuals in multiple
dimensions. The military is no exception. The military is now on
the road to becoming an information age organization. The
transformation involved is fraught with both risks and
opportunities because it will affect the nature of the information
provided as well as the manner in which it is provided.Dr. David S.
Alberts is currently Director of Advanced Concepts, Technologies,
and Information Strategies at the Institute for National Strategic
Studies at the National Defense University. He has held senior
positions in government, industry, and academia over a
twenty-five-year career and has been a leader in helping
organizations take advantage of the opportunities offered by
technology.
