Write a Policy Framework. Finalize your own personal framework for decision/policy making. "Work within your agency to complete the Interagency Exercise by presenting a final PPD for the President to communicate his decision"
Read the below discussion make amendments and Modifications to the Process/PC:
As we know, the way policies of our country’s national security are formulated, coordinated and implemented is a major factor to the welfare of our citizens. As one of the U.S security agency, we play a direct role in as far as the whole process is concerned. The effectiveness of the president’s participation in these procedures entirely depends on the quality and validity of our advice to the president. Whereas as players in this major role, we all believe in our competence in providing quality advice to the president through the agency’s forum, I think a few amendments are just very necessary.
Well, it is evident that in other perspectives, the idea of altering the current policy making and implementation procedures appear vague. So far, we remember that currently, there are no clear guidelines as to how the policy making process are to be conducted. In fact, much of the protocols depend on the president’s decisions and how these decisions are influenced by the advice of the NSS. In my opinion, that is being too subjective!!! In reality, it is similar to letting the effectiveness of the policy making process depend on the principles, views, and motives of a seating president.
Assume a case in which the president purposes to fulfill personal interest, what will happen? What if the president is incompetent or just refuses to take advice? As Americans, shall we still trust him with the responsibility of making valid decisions? My point here is that amendment need to be conducted so that clearly defined decision-making and policy development procedures can be included. I am not hinting to ignoring the administrative role whatsoever. What I mean is that we need to shape the course of decision and policy making process especially on this crucial matter of security. Well defined guidelines together with the advice from NSC and HSC can supplement the efficiency of the operations.
