Driving transformation on a large scale begins with small ideas derived from observations made in everyday life, said Radha Plumb, former chief digital and AI officer for the Department of Defense.

In remarks March 25 at a Generation Next Forum at the Association of the U.S. Army's Global Force Symposium and Exposition in Huntsville, Alabama, Plumb pointed out that in any organization, people who are starting out may not feel their ideas are big enough to mention, much less be implemented, by more experienced teammates.

Future Army officers from Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., gathered Feb. 7 at the Association of the U.S. Army headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, to learn about the principles of leadership from currently serving and retired leaders.
