WEBVTT 00:02.319 --> 00:04.559 We are stronger when we're working 00:04.559 --> 00:07.320 together as allies , and what working 00:07.320 --> 00:09.376 together with allies brings about is 00:09.376 --> 00:11.710 the awareness of the environment you 00:11.710 --> 00:13.840 are operating in . So the environment 00:13.840 --> 00:16.510 we're in currently is not a simple 00:16.510 --> 00:18.677 environment . It is actually a complex 00:18.677 --> 00:20.899 environment because there are different 00:20.899 --> 00:20.319 languages , there are different 00:20.319 --> 00:22.486 cultures , there are different ways of 00:22.486 --> 00:24.541 accomplishing or there are different 00:24.541 --> 00:26.763 lifestyles of how people go about their 00:26.763 --> 00:30.729 daily routines . Helping leaders 00:30.729 --> 00:34.049 and junior leaders and junior enlisted 00:34.049 --> 00:36.180 understand that the decisions have 00:36.180 --> 00:38.347 implications not just on your team but 00:38.347 --> 00:41.500 also the allies is very valuable 00:41.500 --> 00:43.979 because it opens , it helps you to 00:43.979 --> 00:46.580 think about the bigger picture and the 00:46.580 --> 00:48.691 bigger operational objectives and the 00:48.691 --> 00:50.913 strategic objectives that we are trying 00:50.913 --> 00:53.136 to achieve . Yes , we might be fighting 00:53.136 --> 00:55.819 under different flags , but in the end 00:55.819 --> 00:57.652 we are fighting towards the same 00:57.652 --> 00:58.250 political objective .
