The Air Force will launch an “Airman Comprehensive Assessment” form in the coming months that is intended to facilitate “meaningful and purposeful dialogue between supervisors and the airmen they lead,” said CMSAF James Cody in the most recent Roll Call. It will entail “a self-assessment, a detailed evaluation of current performance, and specific questions for the rater and ratee to discuss,” states the Roll Call, released March 31. It will be lengthy, “but it will be time well-spent,” wrote Cody. “We all need feedback and we need it often. It enables us to accomplish great things? for our nation, as individuals, and as a team.”
The Air Force kicked off one of its biggest exercises this week with the latest edition of Bamboo Eagle, featuring combined virtual and live training scenarios focused on test the command-and-control “nervous system” leaders need to operate on a complex joint battlefield spread over vast distances.
