United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney reposted this
Here at ONI, along with the broader National Intelligence Community (NIC), we provide our decision-makers with the best possible strategic warning of impending shocks. In a recent discussion with Hayley Channer from the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney, Director-General of National Intelligence Andrew Shearer highlighted the critical infrastructure and coordination required to effectively manage national security issues and broader crises. Mr Shearer highlighted ONI’s robust network of trusted partnerships with business leaders across Australia, involving regular engagement with corporate boardrooms, industry groups, and associations. He detailed how ONI works to elevate general awareness of threats and the environment we are operating in. Their conversation will be featured in an online course run by the Business School at the University of Sydney. Thank you, Hayley, for an insightful conversation. #IntelligenceCommunity #StrategicWarning #NationalSecurity #GovernmentResponse #Leadership #PublicPrivatePartnership
