Moses, J. R., (2023). “Policy Entrepreneurship: How to Influence a Nation’s Defense Logistics Management System in support of Institutional Capacity Building”. This presentation was in support of the West Africa Logistics Conference hosted by the USAFRICOM J4; sponsored by the African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West Africa States (ECOWAS) held in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire (September 2023). The panel discussion I led focused on how and why partner nation’s should consider professionalizing their logistics corps from a civil-military relations and public administrative perspective, the need for creating logistics governance/authorities in support of executing technical proficiencies, addressing resourcing shortfall and resourcing strategy, the benefits of developing a Defense Logistics Management System that connects a nation’s military to their economic system (public and private) and defense acquisition system, as well as developing readiness reporting to inform senior leaders of logistics issues; based on normative and institutional values.
