*** Surface Warships 2012:

Exploring
the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets

In
a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority of
the world's surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime forces
those of choice for the world's main actors and their allies – and surface
warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the oceans
against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship
programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime environment.

Surface
Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval professional
to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep current vessels
battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.

*** The Surface Navy
Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual activity that SNA is very
proud to offer to our members’ dependent children and spouses for undergraduate
and graduate education. The academic achievements of our scholars are
impressive and our current year’s renewal GPA (for those asking for a second
through fourth year of support) was 3.64.

An
SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated leadership,
community service, academic achievement and commitment to pursuing higher
educational objectives. Our criteria require that an applicant be a child,
stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who is a Surface Warfare
Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or Officers and Enlisted members
of the Coast Guard who’ve earned a permanent Cutterman’s pin, with three years
of sea time.

With
humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award over
$120,000 per year to 60 total individuals. In fact, since 2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a
million dollars in scholarship support to our members and families.

This
past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award scholarships
to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we can continue to
grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting donations for the
scholarship fund online at:

https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp

The Surface Navy Association greatly values any
donation and all donations are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3
organization. As an example of the financial clout we can have together, if
every member gave just $25, it would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded
new scholarships. This is an important way for us to invest in the futures of
the families of our nation’s Surface Warriors.

11.) Senior Strategic
Communication Assessment Analyst, Headquarters, Department of the Army Office
of the Chief of Public Affairs, L-3 MPRI, Washington, DC

Background. The requiring organization is the Headquarters,
Department of the Army Office of the Chief of Public Affairs. Its mission includes keeping various internal
and external audiences of diverse backgrounds and viewpoints informed on Army programs,
operations and policy. The Chief of
Public Affairs is responsible for ensuring communication/public affairs enhances
understanding, trust, confidence, and advocacy for the Army. Communicating effectively to audiences on whom
the Army’s success depends is essential to public and congressional support, especially
in a resource constrained environment. The Army must not only create and
implement communication programs and products (outputs), but also develop and
carry out means for measuring and reporting communication/public affairs
results (outcomes).

Position
Description. L-3 MPRI is
seeking a Strategic Communication Assessment Analyst to help the Army’s Office
of the Chief of Public Affairs measure and analyze the data-driven results of its
communication/public affairs efforts with a view toward continuously improving
how well the Army tells its story. The Analyst
will develop and execute strategies and tactics for measuring the effects of
Army communication across the entire spectrum of media outreach, community relations,
and direct communication. The Analyst
will define measures of effectiveness (MoE) and associated metrics, and conceive,
develop, and implement strategic-level methodologies, processes, and products
for assessing the outcomes achieved by internal and external Army communication
programs. The Analyst will prepare
executive-level presentations for reporting these communication assessments to
senior leaders. The Analyst will apply
strategic and tactical level communication and media results analysis to
support Army senior leaders, communication planners, the OCPA Media Relations
Division, and other OCPA divisions. The Analyst
will continuously monitor both the strategic and communication environments for
customer-relevant issues, threats, and opportunities and provide strategic
insight and recommendations for aligning resources, improving communication
effectiveness, and achieving strategic communication goals and objectives. The
Analyst will support and assist OCPA leadership in the Army Communication Working
Group process. Execution must be in compliance with U.S. law, DoD policy and
assessment guidance provided by Army Senior Leadership and the Chief of Public
Affairs.

Success
in the position is characterized by:

·
Goals and objectives for all significant
communication campaigns/plans are measurable, data-driven, and agreed to by stakeholders.
They will answer the, “so what?” question.

·
OCPA has developed a clear idea, supported by
data, of communication strategies and tactics that work in most situations and
those that do not.

·
OCPA can prove to Army senior leaders, usually
with hard data, the impact that communication/public affairs is having in
connection with addressing a particular issue, achieving a major goal, or solving
a significant problem (such as raising awareness, improving understanding,
generating interest, gaining support/preference, causing desired action).

·
Low- and no-cost Army resources outside of OCPA related
to communication assessment have been secured and put to maximum use.

·
OCPA’s communication planners are incorporating
measurement in their communication strategies.

·
Communication planners and the proponent
organizations they work with have become “addicted to the numbers” that describe
communication results.

Specific tasks include: Serve as the Army’s communication measurement
expert — capable of providing analytical expertise in understanding the
character, nature and trends of communication in this age of information,
particularly with the emergence of social or new media. Provide expertise and work with communication
campaign leads to develop metrics to measure the effects of individual Army
communication initiatives. Research, review
and assess current or traditional Army communication methods and strategies to
determine effectiveness. Develop, utilize and assess appropriate low- or
no-cost metrics to support findings and recommendations that inform the
communication/public affairs way ahead. Analyze
policy, strategy, processes, principles and methodologies, recommending
communication strategies that will achieve the most impact in the least
time. Manage and facilitate working groups with
appropriate Army subject matter experts to develop and implement effective
metric-based tracking of Army communication efforts. The Analyst will conduct
research, analysis and trend studies of various communication channels and
methods, and make recommendations for improvement. This research and
analysis must also include other communication systems and programs that are
related to and directly impact Army Public Affairs initiatives, such as
information technology, and analysis of public opinion polls that mention the
U.S. Army. Establish working
relationships with and garner cooperation and support from other applicable
Army organizations, such as the Army Research
Institute and the Center for Army Analysis.

Qualifications. The successful candidate must have five or
more year’s experience in strategic communication research, analysis and assessment
using relevant tools, techniques and procedures, with at least two years of
demonstrated experience in performing communication assessments at the
enterprise level. The candidate will possess a sound,

on strategic communications assessments and measurements. Knowledge and
expertise of social science methodologies including survey methods and analysis
is essential. Prior DoD, US Government,
Army or Joint Staff experience is a plus with knowledge of applicable laws and
regulations governing Army Public Affairs Programs. Relevant experience
in a public relations firm that is serving or has served government clients
would also be a plus. An Operational
Research and Systems Analysis background or credential is a plus. Candidate will have excellent oral and
written communication skills, diplomacy, tact and the demonstrated ability to
interact with and respond to senior leaders. Candidate must be a self-starter
who is persistent, flexible and intuitive when facing difficult communication
challenges. The candidate must possess
the ability to apply problem-solving tools, techniques and procedures in
recommending courses of action in communication analysis, assessment and
measurement and be able to establish communication objectives, metrics and showcase
integrated planning expertise. Knowledge
and experience using on-line and

required. Candidate must possess
demonstrated initiative, creativity, resourcefulness and organizational skills
to plan, integrate and execute multiple complex strategic communication
initiatives involving key constituents, including: Congress, international,
state and local agencies, internal and external publics, and the media.
