 TRAINING GLOBAL LEADERS
Six years ago, David M. Abshire and Kazuo Inamori took an important step in the development of leaders around the world. Sharing the idea that strength of character and inspired creativity are the essential characteristics of great leaders, they made a commitment to invest in training young people for careers in international leadership. This pledge became the Abshire-Inamori leadership Academy (AILA) at CSIS.
The CSIS young professional staff took a trip to NAVSTA Norfolk to learn more about the operations of the U.S. Armed Forces.
