 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Ian Cotter. Chief of Naval Personnel, Vice Admiral Bill Moran spoke at the Surface Navy Association's symposium about the future of the Navy and a new personnel system. The goal of this new personnel system is to keep quality sailors until retirement by providing opportunities similar to those offered in the private sector. I believe it's the triad on that squadron unit that knows best who the talent is and we need to give them tools at that level to be able to deal with managing talent and keeping the best quality in the Navy. So every policy we're looking at is focused on driving greater authority to the commanding officer and removing authority from the bureaucracy that governs it right now. Okay, really risky thing to do but I think it's time.
