Is the Navy Developing Flag Officers with the Expertise They Need?

Navy flag officers command large organizations and need expertise in a variety of domains — domains that go beyond their primary area of expertise. A new analysis compares the expertise required with that developed in pre-flag officers recently selected for promotion. Its conclusions: The Navy should learn more about expertise requirements as the officers see them and maintain a database of those requirements. Further, the Navy should work to develop in its pre-flag officers the additional domain-specific skills necessary to perform effectively in flag positions.
