Walking on a WIRe | Intelligence Operations Inside the CIA

This is a "behind the scenes" interview with Geoffrey Fowler, the creator and first editor of the CIA's World Intelligence Review (WIRe). Geoff sat for the "From Tragedy to Transformation" interview series nearly a year ago. His contributions were instrumental to telling the Analytic Transformation story. However, his career experiences stood on their own and we felt deserved the full Unredacted treatment. In this episode, Geoff tells us about how his career changed after the attacks on September 11th, his time in the White House assisting with the creation of the Department of Homeland Security, and why he was eventually tapped to create the WIRe. Geoff gives an incredibly candid recounting of the agency's fractured intelligence production posture and the reforms he instituted to raise the quality of CIA's customer service. Along the way, he shares some leadership lessons and insights on what you need to do to make sure your initiatives survive contact with bureaucracy.
