Anticipatory Intelligence and 21st Century Threats

Dr. Jeannie Johnson will introduce the concept of Anticipatory Intelligence, the groundbreaking Center for Anticipatory Intelligence (CAI) at USU that offers courses and research within this field, and the 21st century “threatscape” that requires an anticipatory intelligence skill set.

This lecture will be held on September 28th at 7 p.m. in room 101 at the Merrill-Cazier Library and is sponsored by the Friends of the Merrill-Cazier Library.

Johnson is the Director of the Center for Anticipatory Intelligence (CAI) on USU’s campus. She worked within the Central Intelligence Agency’s Directorate of Intelligence as a member of the Balkan Task Force from 1998-1999 and served with the US State Department in Embassies Paris and Zagreb.

The Cultural Topography analytic method she pioneered with co-author Matt Berrett was featured in CIA’s June 2011 edition of Studies in Intelligence.

Dr. Johnson’s primary research interest examines the impact of national and organizational cultures on the formation of security policy.
