The big picture for the Detainee Tiger Team was to collect data for Combatant Commanders to oversee policy and procedures and meet challenges that put a strain on the detainees and managers of an overseas facility. Although I was totally responsible to report to upper management on current and future issues and request for information from the collaborating combatant commanders and service agencies I trained my three subordinates perform my duties. In return they trained me on the use, classification and destruction of records in the detainee tiger team database and team logistics and human resource processing.

Since we all were displaced as a result of our former positions being eliminated, personal conflicts or physical limitations the need to understand change became evident. Certainly I was aware of how to manage data entry, human resource and logistical support functions. However, I used the training sessions to decipher my team’s emotional and intellectual disposition and to determine where to make major changes in current processes. My intention was to make sure my team adapts a sense of greatness attitude that dignified their existence in the misfit positions. By training them in all areas of the team they were able to perform without supervision. It was my responsibility to teach them that no matter how small the job is take the initiative to bring positive changes that support the vision and mission of the organization.

When the forward facility developed an on-site Detainee Tiger Team our team was disbanded but not before the upper management recognize that despite the reasons we were removed from our former positions, through our dedication and hard work, we created a modest selfless serving team that enhance the current processes in line with the organization’s vision and mission for the future Detainee Tiger Team.
