The KLE featured international and national dignitaries to include Brig. Gen. Abderaman Youssouf Mery, commander of the Chad Special Anti-terrorist Group; Col. Maj. Moussa Salaou Barmou, Niger special operations forces commander; and Capt. Baye Meissa Khoule, chief of naval operations for Senegal. Also in attendance was Mr. Wallace Bain, foreign policy advisor for #NSW; Mr. Paul Stares, General John W. Vessey Senior Fellow for Conflict Resolution and Director of Council on Foreign Relations Center for Preventative Action; Mr. Dehdan Miller, former deputy director of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation; and representatives from United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM).
This iteration of the international training command's SLIC course featured students from Senegal, Sierra Leone, Uganda and Zambia. SLIC is a four-week in-resident course designed to build partner capacity by offering senior military leaders (05-07 level) and senior government officials of partner nations new perspectives, methodologies, and opportunities for thinking strategically and for designing strategies that successfully address complex challenges.
Strategic leaders are introduced to methods and processes for design thinking, systems thinking, and public interest communications and receive instructions from professionals who currently use these methodologies and processes in the public and private sectors. During the course, the leaders apply the aforementioned methodologies in hands-on exercises in various case studies and in a capstone exercise designed against a current strategic challenge relevant to student countries.
