  1. Combined Joint Exercise Control Group Full of Guys Who Like To Think About Complex Stuff The Best Proposal Ever

  2. Purpose To establish a three-day interactive exercise that engages CISA students as well as other members of TISS (and the greater SOF community) with the dynamic relationships of a given international region in order to demonstrate the interplay of strategic policy.

  3. Considerations • Parameters • Focus on Strategy • 2 credit hour course • 3 Day Exercise • Unkmoney / tech resources • Outside participation / influence • Politics • Visible Event (TISS & SWCS) • CISA-N Interest • Products / Event / Effort must be measurable for grade purposes • Outside commentary is likely • TISS Validation • Objectives • Engage Students on the topics of • Strategy (Estimates) • Diplomacy • DIME • Complex Adaptive Systems • Develop supporting products • Maximize TISS participation • Export the exercise • Cultivate enrichment • Maintain participant interest

  4. Concept and Chronology • A Haitian Situation– Haiti continues to degenerate along given multiple lines (governmental, educational, environmental, poverty, etc) which culminates in an international incident (TBD). This exasperates many outlined (and in some cases ‘constructed’) links between all the playing countries. Examples: • The rise of a charismatic nationalistic dictator upsets the Caribbean economic balance and results in militarization , economic response or even conflict. • Coordinated terror acts from a transnational network based within the island cause a military / HR crisis in the region. Aweak, yet recognizable governance in Haiti plays spoiler. • First Phase – Teams plan (and meet?) in order to present national engagement strategy along the exercises prescribed lines of effort. The red cell takes briefs and adjudicates the incorporated progression of the game clock. Three iterations. • Second Phase – Red cell “orchestrates” a peace summit, and teams shift into diplomatic exercise a la TISS / War College exercise. • Third Phase – Resolutions from the summit are applied to an immerging crisis situation in the region (hurricane, earthquake, financial crisis, etc) in a 4th national engagement strategy. Red cell decides the “Final Act” based on those presentations. • Chronology begins in Winter 2015/2016 and advances by six month increments
