Chris Kojm
Chairman, National Intelligence Council
Intelligence collection and analysis play a critical supporting role in the development and implementation of foreign policy. The attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001 exposed critical shortcomings in the US intelligence community. In the decade since those attacks, major organizational and substantive changes have been made in how the US intelligence community functions.
Chris Kojm is the current Chairman of the National Intelligence Council and one of the authors of the 9/11 Commission report that identified the problems within the Intelligence Community and recommended reforms to improve its performance. He will discuss how intelligence has changed, the role it currently plays in the policy process, and what more needs to be done to ensure that the US intelligence community provides the kind of support US policy makers need as they confront current challenges in US foreign policy.
