It was characterized by an early coming together of the partici- ants into a closely knit cameraderie at the - STATINTL STATINTL and remained that way during the entire five weeks of the course. The students exhibited an ent~iusiasm and inquisitivenesss that led to penetrating questionin;; of the speakers and each other. Several speakers, at the end of their presentations, remarked to the staff ,.bout the quality of the class members and the high caliber of their probing questions. This :presentation of the r_~idcareer Course was plagued by a great number of speaker substitutions. During Phase I there were eight changes for speakers listed in the printed schedule a:nd one cancellation. The class h?ad the opportunity to meet with the DCI at its opening session but was able to hear only two of the four Deputy Directors (DDI and DDO). Despite these disappointments the class, nevertheless, felt that the stated objectives of the course had been met and that it had gone a long way in fulfilling their various individual objectives. The 30 students of Midcareer Course No. 44 represented all Directorates and the DCI's Area. Nine were from the Operations Directorate; seven from the Intelligence Directorate; six from the Directorate of Science and Technology; seven from the Directorate of Administration and one from the DCI's Area. The average grade of the class members was 12.6 with twelve GS-12's; sixteen GS-13's; and two GS-14's. One class member was promoted from GS-13 to GS-14 during the running of the course prompting many comments about "instant success" from attendance at the course.

This set a new record for the lowest average age of any Midcareer Class. The average length of service of the class was 9.7 years with a r8nge of three to eighteen years. Major Chan:~;es There were no major changes in the course format. STATINTL Because we were faced with the Thanksgiving Holiday during the second week at~ the class was forced into an abbreviated schedu e and as a result, did not get as much time with Agency speakers in the informal atmosphere at STATINTL 7Che production segment of Phase I probably did not come across as strongly as previous courses due to this scheduling problem.- In addition, due to the abbreviated schedule, we did not program the Organization Game as a regular agenda item but-kept it as a back-up in case of speaker cancellations or delays. As it turned out it was used to good advantage on the second day of the course. The course got off to a good start with the opening remarks by the DCI. The class was most appreciative of the more than a~n hour spent on his remarks and the question and answer period. In fact,' it appeared that he would have been willing to continue longer but for the reminder by his aides that he hack a flight to catch to New York to address the Economic Club of New York that evening. Mr. :Blake was scheduled as the opening speaker for Phase I: but was forced to bow out the week befor~s STATINTL to talk. , Assistant for Resources to the DDA, ably substituted for r. Blak~in a candid and free- STATINTL flowing discussion at - The day devoted to the Agency's external relationships got off to a bumpy start with weather problems that forced the delay of air transpor- tation from the Headquarters area. The Organization Game was quickly put into play which resulted in good class STATINTL interaction, and discussion. The perseverance of is to be commended; they finally arrived STATINTL late in they afternoon -, and the class showed its appreciation during a lively and humorous extended session that evening.

Reaction to specific speakers was mixed, depending on the subject matter and individual reaction to the dynamism of the speakers. Despite the absence of general reaction STATINTL to the S$T speakers was good. Dr .'Proctor received good reviews fo:r his evening session, although representatives of the DDI did not receive much acclaim. Incidentally, -r, Pxocto:r'was noticably tired in the evening after having spoken to 'the Senior Seminar that afternoon and he got off to a slow :start. DDO/SE earned good marks STATINTL for his resentation ut t e students were more critical of STATINTL DDO EA and DDO/LA, on the PRC STATINTL STATINTL and Field activities respectively. STATINTL DDO%DCD, gave a disjointed and low-key presentation which was pretty much of a disappointment. The transition to Chamber of Commerce Building went about as usual. The class suffered the normal let down or cultural shock from the informal atmosphere STATINTL STATINTL ~, D/OF, and the OMS panel were the high points of the DDA presen~tati.ons in Block IV of Phase I. The visit to OTS using the :shortened schedule drew varied reactions. All felt that the content was good but that it was too rushed. STATINTL D/DCI/IC, speaking to the Midcareer Course for the first time, got Phase II off to a good start. It faltered with presentation on STATINTL DIA--he was regarded almost unanimously as the weakest speaker in this phase--but interest picked up with the remaining speakers. In an effort to counter the negative reaction to previous NSA speakers, we asked STATINTL Special Assistant to the CIA SIGINT Officer, to discuss the SIGINT Community. He did a first-rate job but some felt that leis focus was to narrow. STATINTL STATINTL ~ did commendable jobs covering t e s an respectively. Lt. Col. Donald MacDonald, who replaced Col. Richard Kennedy for the NSC presentation was the only substitute in Phase II. Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-00536A000400040001-7 AUT~'1IV:~:Ctr1T~ ,:,, ,.

Our hosts at Cape Canaveral and Langley did an excellent job in providing interesting tour schedules and NASA is to be complimented for their effort. Student comments ranged from "interesting" to "awesome" and the only complaints were related to the lack of time to cover and assimilate such a wide variety of things to see. Some of the class members suggested that some way should be found to alert briefers to the true identity of the group in order too relate NASA activities to intelligence problems but cover considerations probably preclude this. Phase III was the high point of the course. The class members forand this segment interesting and stimulating and indicated that paid speakers from the academic and non- government arena were well worth the expense. New speakers who appeared for the first time were Andre~r Pierre, Council on Foreign Relations, Verne F St.Mars, State Department Office of ~5ecurity, Milo Cox, formerl with AID and Daniel STATINTL w]ho substituted for STATINTL performance was pedestrian but t e of ers i first-rate STATINTL jobs and many felt that Cox was outstanding. Messrs. Pierre STATINTL and ~ were invited to accompany the DCI on his plane to New York where the DCI addressed the Council on Foreign Relations on 16 December, Pierre had to cut his remarks short. Thais did not allow the class to get the full measure of his talents but he, as well as the others, should be invited to participate in future runnings of the course. STATINTL as the final speaker of the course due to Mr. Duckdtt~s absence, left the class with a provocative and stimulating message about the future. The only major problems associated with the course were the high number of speaker changes and the setting up of the field trip. Originally, we had planned to couple the Cape Canaveral trip with a visit to Coca Cola Headquarters in Atlanta to get a view of a multi-national corporation's operations and problems. An inquiry by DCD left the impression that while they would host the group, Coca Cola was less t]zan enthusiastic about the visit.

A fix was then made with :[NASA for a visit to Langley, which turned out very well. An additional problem which caused some initial confusion occurred during the early days of planning and scheduling speakers when offices were contacted to inquire about appearing before Course No. 44 and they had not yet spoken to Course 43. This happened with the Office of Communications and the Office of Medical Services in the DDA and the Office of Strategic Research in the DDI, Summary of Class Reaction The overall student evaluations, without exception, were favorable and enthusiastic. Exposure to class members from other directorates was invaluable and the informal student presentations were, to some, the most informative part of the course. A major factor leading to this con- clusion is the opportunity to spend two weeks. together at from the constricting Headquarters environment. Many suggested in their evaluations that more of the Course should be given On a ;scale of 1 to 7, Phase I evaluations ranged from 4 to 6 with an average of 5.2. Phase II evaluations ran from 3 to ~5 averaging out at 4,7 and the Field-Trip evaluations covered a range of 3 to 7 with an average of 5.3. The :Phase III evaluations were the highest ranging from 4 to 7 and averaged out at 5.6. The overall average of the course came out at 5.2. The lower rating for Phase I in this course may reflect the reaction to the number of speaker changes and the shortened schedule The high ratin;; of Phase III reflects the interest ln, and appreciation of paid speakers who provided thought- provoking points of view that were different from the usual bureaucratic or government point of view.

Proctor,:. the Deputy Director for Intelligence, opened the session by putting the Directorate in the over- all context and focusing on the production aspect. He said that t:he primary purpose of the Agency was to assist the policy makers in the decision making process. The finished product, or finished intelligence, is an important part of that process. He then gave a broad overview of the Directorate concentrating on each production office and ended b;y referring to those components engaged in support activities. He also said that the people within the Directorate, interacting with each other and with other components of the Agency, was what made the Directorate function. He said that was also true for the Agency as a whole. After these brief remarks, Dr .', Proctor ,!then opened the floor to questions. The following are selected questions during this informal session: Q. Haw do ;you feel about taking OWI and combining it with OSR? A. Dr. Froctor'said that he had no real problem with this. However, he said that he didn't expect it to happen until personalities actually changed, Q. How do 'you feel about the transfer of DCD from the DDI to the :DDO? A. Dr. Proctc~x said that the decision was made during the Schlesinger'Administration and that the important issue was the overtness of DCD. By placing the DCD within the DDO it somewhat weakens its credibility. AgainDr. ~'roctor stated that the overt collection was definitely the most important aspect of the office. He concluded his remarks concerning this question by saying that he really was in no position to comment further on the transfer, simply because he was not asked or consulted on the decision to move this office.

Proctox said that the military was one although they are not competitors across the board. The Agency has established itself in the military and scientific fields of intelligence and this has tended to give the military an inferiority complex. The military is now trying to re-establish and reassert itself in these fields .and for that matter probably will. There will continually be competition for us from the military services. There are now some tensions between OER and the Treasury Department.. They have asked the Agency why it is doing economic analysis, especially when CIA conclusions are different from theirs. This also applies to the Department of Agriculture and the DCI has received some critical comments from Secretary Butz, particularly in the world food area. Q. Do you have any thoughts on the merger of IAS and NPIC? A. NPIC is nationally oriented and is so large that it tends to be inflexible. He said that he viewed IAS as a pilot plant for experimentation and an institution with a great deal of flexibility that can respond quickly to crisis situations. This type of organization is also needed to respond to DDO projects that are sensitive in nature. IAS also serves as a check on other PI facilities. Q? Has the DDI given Dr. Kissinger satisfactory information over the years? A. Dr. Proctor indicated that Kissinger wanted to know about many things and many people. He cited as a specific example the support provided during the Middle East cease fire and truce negotiations. The DDI provided photos, maps, order of battle information, and ethnic data on villages in the area. With this material Dr. Kissinger was able to help establish the cease fire lines.

In a simple answer the Management Committee does not, or is not able to make decisions by itself. It simply does no1~ work. The real decisions are made by the DCI and no one else. The committee did get the Associate Directors to work as a subgroup of the committee to work out the allocation of funds and the moving and realigning of personnel. This was a worthwhile effort. The committee also tasked the Office of Personnel to inau:ire from the Civil Service Commission about the ramifications of the recent decision about age discrimination and the right to work beyond 60 years of age. The results were not encouraging for the Agency. Q. What are the DDI objectives in the context of MBO A. Dr. Prc~ctax cited Project SAPE as one and discussed what is being done to implement" that objective. He also discussed the Ke project and its organization and impact on the Directorate. He said that the remainder would probably not interest the class. Q. What arse the NIO relationships with the DDI A. The NIO's are facilitators and have no real command functions. They are the geographical or substantive ' authorities that are at the right hand of the DCI. Their major impact as far as production is concerned is on the DDI area. Most of the burden falls on OCI; certainly in the quick response area. Almost all of the NIO's come from the DDI area so they have a good relationship and work well together with DDI analysts. He felt that things could get sticky when the NIO's began getting into the collection area. Have you had the Midcareer Course? A. Dr. Proctor said he had not. He also said that in his 21 years of Agency experience he had had only about two days of training.

What do we as Midcareerists do with the massive amount of information we get in the course and how do we use it? A. He said that the information received was only incidental and that the main benefits came from the contacts with peers made in the course. It is conditioning that contributes to future performance. Each student should take advantage of this aspect of the course and cultivate them over the years. Q. Now that you are at the Directorate level, what drives you or what satisfaction do you receive in your position? A. Dr. Proctor said that he derived his major satisfaction from reading a good analytical paper, delving into this paper, and being able to make suggestions or comments that would eventually contribute to the papers success. The second bit of satisfaction is being able to provide an environment in which the analyst can work with a minimum of administrative distractions. Q. What are the major shortcomings of DDO activities as you see them at this time? A. Dr. was the Proctor cited only one specific problem and that the lack of DDO resources or plans to fully exploit Jewish emigrees coming out of the Soviet Union.

Colby~s'Remarks to Midcareer Course 44 on 13 November 1974 Mr. Colby opened Midcareer Course 44 by welcoming all members to the course. He hoped that the last half of their career would be as beneficial as was the first. Mr. Colby asked all of the class members to look at the Agency from the outside and see how-the Agency fits-into the outside world while in the course. This will stimulate you as individuals and give you a chance to see where we should go in the Agency and how to do it. With Watergate and Chile, we have found that we have little time to focus on the Agency itself; we need the talents of individuals like yourselves along with your experience to give the Agency a little direction. Your ideas might take awhile to be implemented but, if they are good anal-sound, implementation will take place. Mr. Colby stated that knowledge of the management of the Agency was important for an understanding of the decision- making process. Management devices-such as MBO, PDP, APP, all boil down to communication of what is important and provide a base for auditing results once the decisions are made. Leave the individual alone for awhile then, after a period of time ask: him how he has done. Mr. Colby said that this is what he calls the post audit system of management. The machinery runs very well by itself, so don't muck around with it. Mr. Colby said that the main part of intelligence is the product: and the substance, not the management style. This is what you as individuals should get out of this course. He: also said that this was the driving force behind intelligence and our institution. One of our main subjects in intelligence today is that of economies; it used to be counterinsurgency several years ago, but nc-t now. Mr. Colby stressed the importance of economic intelligence collection, both overtly and covertly. Mr. .Colby asked the class members to-let the substance of intelligence drive -their interest during the course, so that it's i_n the best interest of the President, Congress and most of al]_ the country. Mr. Colby said that we have added a new image to both the Agency and intelligence, that being the engineer. The engineer has taken his place along side the spy. Sure we have spies and we will probably always have them, but its the new image that we have added that is important. The intellectual aspect of intelligence is where we are today, Approved For Release ~ ~J~?~@31,~~ t ~ ,, RDP80-0053 ~~~~4~0~'OU~'1=~7?"' ~ ~ ~ ~,. Y ~um~ Es, ~~~ ~ 1MPDc7 CL EY. ~(~ _~ ki"": ~_. Approved For Release 200?/ P-~0-0053000400040001-7 and being able to interrelate them is what's important. Adding these new changes and images as well as new techniques into intelligence to better broaden ourselves is what is important.. 'Mr,'Colb'y:lalso stated that we were opening up our relationship-with the American public so that-the public may better understand us. That is one of the reasons for his being more open, "we need the public's support." Mr. Colby said that we were also having problems keeping some of our secrets, and that he was trying to introduce new laws in the Congress to change some of this, especially the protection of sources and methods. He said-that the President backs the Agency 100 percent as far as covert action is concerned, and Congress reaffirmed its support for covert action in recent voting on specific pieces of legislation. Mr. Colby stated that as far as Teaks were concerned, he only knew of one leak from the Hi11 thus far and that the real leaks were coming from the Executive Branch of the Government. The following are selected questions and responses from Mr. Colby's opening remarks: Will economic intelligence play an important part in the future? Most definitely. Look at the economic effects of petroleum and food products. If we can help solve the economic problem, we can help solve the political situation. This sort of problem-solving-can avert wars. We must develop a pattern in economic intelligence on how we-can better use it. There may be discreet ways. to conduct covert action to defuse potential economic disasters. By laying out the economic intelligence facts, we may be able to defuse a hostile situation between two countries. Are we doing anything to improve our public image? We are not launching any full-scale promotion effort to improve our public image.- However, I do a good deal of this. For example, I am going to New York this evening to speak to the Economic Club there. General Walters does a good deal of this also, as well as-some analysts in the Agency. What is the Agency's role in the SALT Negotiations? The negotiations depend on the Agency for its answers and projections. There appears to be a real effort for a SALT agreement during 1975, prior'to the election in Approved For Release 20Q01~~~'I~~ ~P80-00536A000400040001-7 {{~ ~~TT ~ Approved For Rele~e 2000/0 ~G"i~F~~P~0-0054000400040001-7 1976. The verification of an agreement will be extremely difficult cos well as will be the symmetry. We have certainly raised the points about supposed violations, but you're dealing with a cult:ure here, so its very difficult. We must convince the Soviets to be more open and less secretive. What's the Agency's-role in covert collection of intelligence in the U.S..? We only collect intelligence from Americans in a willing and witting manner.- We really collect foreign intelligence against foreigners in this country, such as foreign diplomats, trade representatives, foreign students and technical personnel. We have a good relationship with the FBI. We have told them that we would not collect intelligence against any foreigner in this country without their knowledge. The FBI has the central coordinating repsonsibility. 25X1A Approved For Release 2000/~'''~ P~0-00536A000400040001-7 ~~~~a~ 25X1A Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-00536A000400040001-7 Next 1 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-00536A000400040001-7 Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-005?~6A000400040001-7 CONFIDENTIAL ~IIDCAREER COURSE N0. 44 OPENING DAY DCI Canfexence Raom PHASE I THE AGENCY 25X1A Headquarters Area Opening Day 13 November 1974 Phase I 17 Novembex-4 Decembex 1974 CONFIDENTIAL Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP8(~0~53~6~00~0001-7 Approved For Rel~se 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-006A000400040001-7 CONFIDENTIAL i~~IIDCAREER COURSE N0. 44 CHAIRMAN: 25X1A Room 921, Chamber of Commerce Extension 2063 Room 921, Chamber of Commerce Extension 2063 Room 921, C amber of Commerce Extension 2063 25X1A 25X1A CONFIDENTIAL Approved For Release 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-00536A000400040001-7 Approved For Rek~ase 2000/06/01 :CIA-RDP80-005~6A000400040001-7 CONFIDENTIAL r1IDCAREER COURSE The i~Iidcareer Course was started in 1963 to provide an opportunity far promising, middle-level officers to broaden their professional horizons. The Course has become we11- Icnown throughout the Agency as an important aspect of career development as well as a forum for the exchange of views between senior managers from many components of CIA and course participants. This success is illustrated by the decision in mid-1973 to increase the number of runnings per y~;ar from four to six. COURSE OBJECTIVES ;7idcareer Course members are expected too 1. Gain a broad understanding of the Agency as a whole, the directorates and components other than their own, and of issues of current concern to Agency management. 2. Increase their knowledge of the other elements of the Intelligence-Community and the policy making process. 3. Obtain insight into national and international developments of signif- icance that bear on the U.S. foreign intelligence effort. PHASES The A~idcareer Course is divided into three phases which in succession emphasize each of the three objectives. You should, however, keep in mind that the range of subject matter covered in each of the phases contributes to the attainment of all three objectives.
