Every day, one federal agency simultaneously serves the global intelligence needs of the American military, the U.S. Intelligence Community, and, increasingly, domestic first responders. In this episode of AFCEA Answers, Ellen McCarthy, chief operating officer of the National Geospatial- Intelligence Agency (NGA), discusses how “managing through portfolios” makes sense during a new era of intelligence challenges and fiscal restraint. We’ll also discuss how links with industry and academia are driving mission-focused innovations, like NGA’s “Map of the World”. And McCarthy talks about educating and recruiting the next generation of NGA innovators.
