Conduct evaluation and analysis of various strategic issues providing written assessments of the issues including advantages and disadvantages and recommendations for pursuing a particular course of action.

Collaborate with and facilitate decision-making for regional, functional, and domain NIM teams, as well as with other ODNI teams, to identify and advance cross-region and functional issues that impact outcomes beyond an individual mission space.

Engage MMG and NIMC leadership, or other ODNI leaders as appropriate, on strategic priorities, opportunities, gaps, and interdependencies to link resources to strategy; plan and communicate emerging strategic issues and trends, evaluate them in context of U.S. Government plans, and make recommendations for improvements.

Plan and prepare briefings, reports, and presentations to organizational leadership in a manner that meets their specified requirements and provide expert analysis and recommendations that ensure IC strategic plans and programs align with strategic objectives.

Initiate, cultivate, and maintain productive working relationships with peers and senior leaders within NIMC, ODNI, and across the IC in order to coordinate strategy development activities and evolving requirements and promote the implementation of mission and enterprise objectives.

Establish, sustain and advance outreach activities within and beyond the IC to ensure long term strategy development is informed by best practices from the U.S. Government, industry, and foreign partners.
