The United States Army is like a business in that it faces the same challenges — of recruitment and retention, of productivity, of mission — that all businesses face. As Secretary of the Army Louis Caldera noted at the 2000 “Invest in America” forum, “Both the military and industry are facing serious shortages in the number of available workers with the skills and education to fill the ranks.” This report offers an overview of discussion during the forum about how the public and private sectors can work together to address their shared problems.
