E
arlier this year, Chief of Naval Operations Adm.
John M. Richardson released guidance for the
future, titled "A Design for Maintaining Maritime
Superiority." As the Navy adapts to an increasingly complex and uncertain environment, the
"Design" focuses on maximizing performance and long-term
outcomes to ensure we maintain a competitive edge. The Navy
Reserve Vision (2015-2025) supports the CNO's priorities by
delivering "a ready and agile force whose military and civilian
skills are deliberately leveraged to support mission accomplishment." As one Navy team, comprising active and Reserve sailors
and civilians, we will achieve the CNO's desired outcome: "a
naval force that produces leaders and teams who learn and adapt
to achieve maximum possible performance, and who achieve
and maintain high standards to be ready for decisive operations
and combat."
