INTERNATIONAL A list of overseas schools enrolling American students SCHOOLS has been compiled by the International Schools Services SERVICES (ISS) to assist parents who are planning overseas assign- ments. Generally speaking, the schools have these characteristics in common: a history of enrolling U.S. students; a complete curriculum in the English language; and a reciprocal relationship with ISS. A more complete listing of boarding schools with pictures and a summary of the program offered is to be found in the Guide to Boarding Schools Abroad, produced by ISS and published by Pan American Airways. If you are interested in the names of these schools, and information such as tuition ranges, U.S. enrollment, and total enrollment, you may call on ex- tension- If you wish a persona copy of the over- seas schools compiled by the ISS, write directly to In- ternational Schools Services, 2000 P Street N.

Each ran for one and one-half days during which time the TOs were briefed by Chiefs of each of OTR's Schools on their general in- structional activities as well as the special roles their Schools-have in supporting the Agency's training re- quirements. The Chief/JOTP briefed the group on the "neW look" of the JOT program and the Executive Sec- retary of the Training Selection Board (TSB) explained the workings of the Board, especially the process of se- lecting Agency candidates to participate in programs under jurisdiction of the TSB. He also told of future plans for the Midcareer Executive Development course. The Training Officers met with Mr. Baird, Director of Training, who reviewed the development of training in the Agency and emphasized the support Agency training is receiving from top management. The morning of the second day was devoted mainly to talks by members of the Registrar Staff who described the services of the Admissions and Information Branch and the External Training Branch; what they had to of- fer TOs as well as the type of support they need from the TOs. This was followed by a panel discussion led by the Deputy Registrar at which time TOs had an op- portunity to ask questions. These orientation programs are planned for small groups purposely so that there will be time for discussion by TOs with senior officers in OTR as well as time for TOs to bring to the attention of the officers their individual problems. It is hoped also, that this will bring about an even more efficient operating relationship between TOs and members of OTR. Another orientation program will be held in early 1965. If you wish to attend, call AAOS TO Beginning in January and continuing at least for the first BE SET six months of '65, AAOs will be given according to a TO A regular schedule. Details of the new plan will appear SCHEDULE about mid-October in an OTR Special Bulletin. Approved For Release 2002/M~?

It will be prepared as an insertion for the OTR Catalog. In recent weeks several students in courses at Broyhill have been inconvenienced- -and perhaps embarrassed-- by having to report to the Guards' desk for failure to display their Agency badge while in the area of fourth floor and above. (The badge is not to be displayed below fourth floor.) When there is the opportunity will you remind your employees of the official requirement: "Badges shall be displayed at all times while in an Agen- cy building and are to be removed and not displayed out- side Agency buildings. " "Agency building" in Broyhill is 4th to 8th floors. Two new volumes, one dealing with intelligence reposi- tories and the other with intelligence information collec- tion programs, have been produced by the OTR Intelli- gence Production Faculty and are available to requesters. These two manuals are Volumes III and V, respectively, of the text Intelligence Research Facilities and Tech- niques . (Other volumes of this text which are also avail- able on request are: Volume II on Research Planning, Volume IV on Assembly of Data by Analysts, Volume VI on The Analytical Process -- Techniques and Tools, and Annex I - Analysts' Files.) Volume III, entitled Intelligence Repositories, contains an explanation of analysts' files and criteria for deter- mining whether such files are needed and what they should contain (Annex I gives details on how analysts' files are organized). The volume describes the facili- ties, services, and capabilities of repositories of infor- mation which might be valuable to the intelligence re- search analyst. These repositories are divided into the following types: general (including the CIA Library), biographic, photographic, map, industrial, scientific and technical, and other specialized repositories. The volume also includes a discussion of the use of consul- tants.

It is for the ana- lyst and other professionals such as reference librarians, linguists who exploit foreign language materials, and document disseminators who are responsible for sup- porting the research analyst. Each student works on a research project assigned him by his office. The stages in the research process which are covered in the course and which the student applies to his project are planning the project; using analysts' files, libraries and registers; selecting and using dis- seminated materials; selecting appropriate -collection programs to fill gaps; applying the analytical process; and writing a progress report on his course project. During the course students are required to read a text written specifically for the training of research-analysts. They also take tours of Agency facilities available to re- searchers and they participate in seminars in which they discuss problems as well as the comparative capabili- ties of facilities and services they use. 25X1 A The next IRT is to be given from 16 November through 11 December in Room 411 Broyhill.

BASIC INTELLIGENCE FACTBOOK A new edition of the "Basic Intelligence Factbook" was issued by the Office of Basic Intelligence in September. This is a ready reference text providing basic details on all countries and on certain regional groupings (such as the Arab League and the Conseil de 1'Entente). The Factbook provides data for each country on: area, people, government, economy, communications, and defense forces. Copies of the book may be obtained by filling in Form 490 and sending it to CIA Records Cen- te r. At a recent secretarial workshop conducted by GSA, the ques- tion was asked, "Why do letters have to be retyped? " Before any of the students could even raise her hand, the following answer was given: In 30 percent of the cases when a letter had to be rewrit- ten, it was because of stenographic inaccuracy. Errors in English or composition caused 25 percent of the retyping. And in 45 percent of the cases it was an error in content (the boss's errors) which made a rewrite necessary. Actually, 70 percent of the errors are the boss's. 25X1 A 25X1A Approved For Release 2002/FIA-RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY 9 SECRET Approved For Releasl&]nO21I'iW6370A000100010029-4 SERVICES OF THE TRAINING ASSISTANCE STAFF The Training Assistance Staff, a support unit within the Operations School, ?TR, has a collec- tion of training papers covering virtually every kind of clandestine activity. The collection is tailored for various levels of experience and many items may be obtained in French, Spanish, and certain other foreign languages. New mate- rial for general and specific use is constantly in preparation. Instructors, some on rotation from other components, frequently prepare papers for the TAS whose members work closely with the instructors in editing and arranging for pub- lication and distribution. Staffs and Branches within the Clandestine Services have been gener- ous in not only providing material for the collec- tion but also in providing comments on drafts of studies. In various stages of completion are training guides for Covert Action and Internal Defense/Counterinsurgency, a revision of the Glossary of Operational Terminology and a gen- eral paper on clandestine communications. TheStaff services requesters, particularly case officers who are responsible for training foreign- ers. They are almost sure to find material to fit their needs whether they plan training for a low-level unilaterial agent or for a group of for- eign intelligence officers. Well over a thousand items were furnished to the Clandestine Services during 1964 for overseas use; half again that many for their Headquarters components; and about that same number to other requesters with- in or outside CIA.

Summaries of other Senior Defense Schools will appear in subsequent issues of the OTR Bulletin. Maxwell Air Force Base, Mont- gomery, Alabama is the Headquar- ters of the Air War College, which was established in March of 1946 as the senior professional school in the Air Force's educational sys- tem. Like most of the Senior De- fense Schools, the Air War College operates on a ten-month curricu- lum which begins in mid-August and ends in early June. Its pri- mary purpose is to keep its offi- cers abreast of the major problems of national and interna- tional relations, military strategy, joint, combined and spe- cific commands, national strategy, modern weapons systems, science and technology, and logistics. Its brochure outlines its objectives more specifically as follows: 1. To gain a more complete understanding of interna- tional relations, the nature of conflict, the essential elements of strategy, sound employment doctrine, and staff responsibilities. 2. To further develop an appreciation of current prob- lems of national defense. 3. To develop a comprehensive understanding of the capabilities and limitations of our warfare studies in support of national policy.

These men are from the United States Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, the Royal Air Force. There are representatives alsofrom the Departmentof State, USIA, National Security Agency, and the Central Intelligence Agency. CIA's representatives are officers in Grades GS-14, or higher, and are between the ages of 35 and 45. After an ini- tial screening of applicants within the Directorates, a Depu- ty Director nominates his candidates for the College to the Agency's Training Selection Board(TSB). The Board screens the candidates in more detail. This part of the screening in- cludes a personal interview with the candidate. (Officers who have been nominated by their Deputy Directors but who are not available for an interview are at no loss in the selec- tion process. Their professional activity away from Head- quarters is taken into full consideration.) After the TSB has selected the nominees -- the Agency is expected to have its quota at Air War College increased from two to three for the next session -- the names are sent to the DDCI for final selection. Successful candidates are notified by TSB of their selection; so too are those not so successful. (Failure to be selected one year is not necessarily a deterrent to ap- plying for the following year's program.) During the ten months of the course students at the Air War College have an opportunity to hear top-level civilian and militaryleaders speak quite franklyabout the most sensitive aspects of U. S. policy. They also hear lectures by leaders in the fields of education, industry, science, and politics. There are opportunities for question and answer exchanges by the students and instructors; there are seminars, re- search, prescribed reading, field trips, and a thesis. Seminars are designed to supplement the lectures and indi- vidual research. Reading assignments are planned to pro- vide the students with background material. The thesis pro- gram is intended to complement the lectures, the reading, and the seminars. For his thesis, the student selects a problem dealing with an aspect of national defense. There may be several field trips.

The feature pro- vides an opportunity for AWC students and faculty and pro- fessional graduates to further their formal academic educa- tion during off-duty hours. Courses are offered toward a Bachelor's degree in the College of General Studies and to- ward an MA in International Studies. In addition to the benefits from lectures given by top-level representatives of the government and industry, field trips and private research, there is always the added advantage, as one CIA representative summarized, which comes from the close associations and friendships established with rep- resentatives of the Armed Services. Many of these indivi- duals can be expected to hold important positions in their respective services and the rapport can be of mutual benefit in facilitating liaison and support.

From management litera- ture they know that the job should involve long-range planning, continuing policy re- view and analysis, field trips, fostering in- novation and creativity, and not merely ad- ministrative details, routine correspond- ence, crisis management. Yet filling "the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds worth of distance run" remains a gnawing issue, intensified by the normal demands of family and home. Anticipating the benefits of exchanging ideas and possible group therapy, a selected group of higher executives of the State of New York examined this issue. With reference to one of management's most plaguing problems, paper- work, methods ranged from automatic discard, waiting for a follow-up communication (also called "ripening and aging'"), and leaving it to staff. But it was generally agreed that the remedy for an overflow of paper- work was stemming the flow at its source. The effective application of this remedy requires a competent secretary for routing and subordinates who understand the scope of their responsibility. As Jethro counseled Moses in Exodus--"Every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge themselves. " The character of the organization was found to dictate how much time the manager could spend away from his desk. Closely allied was the problem of controlling telephone calls, visitors, and similar interrup- tions. Disagreement arose here, some feeling that excessive reliance on even competent staff might tend to insulate the manager from his or- ganization. However, even those advocating the "open door" felt that the manager must pick the time for such contacts. Approved For Release 2002/01WjigbAl-RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 20 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY SECRET Approved For Re J'SRM 9 F 1A- P18-06370A000100010029-4 Central to this is the critical question--when does the manager find time to do creative thinking? --to find fresh approaches to problems, to for- mulate new programs and policies, and to write speeches, articles and important memoranda? Surely these are among the most important as- pects of his job. His creative ability is what makes him especially valu- able to his organization. Yet the pressure of paperwork and daily crises so crowd the hours of the manager's working day that little time is left for creativity. Perhaps a more complete title for the workshop would have been: "How Can the Manager Get His Job Done and Still Work a Reasonable Number of Hours?" While it does seem inevitable that people in managerial posi- tions must work long hours, there are several things that can be done to minimize this problem. The group summarized these as follows: Train your secretary and other personal staff to route as many matters as possible to key subordinates; avoid the handling of minutia. Develop your staff to the maximum of their capacity; enhance their decision-making ability through understanding of organiza- tion policies. Make your standards clear and realistic, so that your assistants can produce completed staff work. Hold regular staff meetings, but keep them short and to the point. Resist the compulsion to add your personal touch to each piece of work. Establish priorities on your time, then stick to them. Deliberately get away from your desk--out into your organization or on field trips--in order to let your people function without you. It is clear that when administrators meet for such a discussion they can do much more than recite to each other the standard principles of pub- lic administration. They all agree they should delegate, communicate, Approved For Release 2002tW6ft fIA-RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY 21 SECRET Approved For ReleasCr%M6 / ?1AJ- -0'6370A000100010029-4 plan, and so forth, but they also can learn from each other "how to do it. " The difference in methods--some might be called tricks- -reflects each manager's personality and approach to administration. In some, warmth and human understanding dominate, perhaps at the expense of administrative efficiency; others prefer a mechanistic approach in which a smoothly operating machine is developed for others to operate, while the manager concentrates on external relations. Everyone was aware that to conserve time and en- ergy for exercising creativity and leadership he must continually fend off the encroachments of a sea of paperwork and of people wanting to see him. This is a battle that is not fought and won once and for all; it requires eternal vigilance and courage. Each participant gained some of the benefits of group therapy, for where his own managerialprob- lems had appeared insoluble, he now saw them as symptoms of an occupational disease, a common ailment. Part of the cure came from the final conclusion that no matter how effective the manager is in stream lining his day's schedule, he inevitably finds that the creative demands of his job must be met outside of regular working hours. The workshop provoked continuing discussions, and subsequently a ques- tionnaire was prepared and distributed to 18 individuals having top man- agement responsibilities in New York State. Each respondent was re- quested to frankly and anonymously provide the best estimate of his al- location of time to a specific set of activities. The following observa- tions emerge from analysis of this data: 1. The average top manager in the State of New York spends seven times more time on the telephone than on long-range planning. 2. In comparing the hours worked per week of the four individuals working the greatest number of hours and the four working the fewest number of hours, the bulk of the additional working time was found to be spent reviewing the work of subordinates and handling telephone calls. 3. Handling routine correspondence, on the average, consumed 4. 2 per cent of the time of all managers involved, while in- dividual responses range as high as 15 per cent.

Individuals working the lowest number of hours per week spent, on the average, three hours per week more in introducing changes than the managers working the highest number of hours per week. 5. The average top manager in this group spends about 35 per cent of his time in (1) reviewing and signing letters and memo- randa prepared by subordinates, (2) participating in staff con- ferences, and (3) handling telephone calls. These individuals display advance symptoms of the deadly disease which Profes- sor C. Northcote Parkinson has called "injelititis.

If you want to interview people fast and thoroughly- -don't even try. A thorough interview just cannot be rushed. Often it takes hours of time. Attempt to squeeze a thorough interview into a few min- utes, and you may lead yourself down a primrose path. But the fast interview has a pur- pose. In your busy daily business life, your goal is optimum use of your time. The ability to inter- view properly yet quickly gives Suppose you plan to interview as many candidates as possible, in order to find the one who will bring something extra to the job. Using a fast interview pattern, you can see a dozen applicants and flag the two or three who deserve more time. There is a way to complete a good capsule interview in about nine min- utes. This interview approach is based on many years of experience. It has helped uncover literally thousands of "something extra" employ- ees for both permanent and temporary jobs. The secret of the nine-minute interview is to do and say the right things in the right order. Here is a pattern: STEP 1: Study the facts first (time: one minute) Approved For Release 2002/0 RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 24 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY IINNTT SECRET Approved For Release 200270g2: CA RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 To save time and avoid mistakes, a good rule to follow is: never start an interview without first knowing about the person. In the case of a job applicant, study his resume before he comes into your office. Better yet, have him fill out a detailed application form. You can read signals about a person just in the way he fills out an appli- cation form, as well as in what he says. For example, the following danger signals are generalities, but they stand up with amazing regu- larity: Does the applicant take too long to fill out the form? This may signal a problem of some kind, perhaps an emotional problem. A person seek- ing a job should have thought through the facts about himself and be able to write the answers easily. Does the applicant leave out basic information? The applicant may be unable to answer some questions, but if he leaves out basic information-- such as address, age, marital status--this is a danger signal. It may indicate mere carelessness, but it may also signal that the applicant is hiding something. Did the applicant resist or argue about filling out the form? A person who resists instructions before being hired will do so afterwards too. This may be the kind of person who will try to match his will against his boss's. Does the application form show employment gaps? This may indicate a lack of stability, or a chronic illness. The application form can give you many clues to follow up in the inter- view itself. But getting advance facts about the applicant is only half the story. Before you even start to interview, make sure you know all the important facts about the job to be filled. This includes not only educational requirements, experience and skills needed but, equally important, the personality requirements of the job. It's been proved repeatedly that many more people fail in, jobs because of personality problems than because of skill problems. STEP 2: Observe appearance (time: half a minute) Don't believe it when they say you can't judge a book by its cover. When it comes to people, you certainly can. If you are observant, you can learn many things in the few seconds it takes an interviewee to walk into Approved For Release 2002/9t.1iZ9.EC1A-RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY 25 SECRET Approved For Release C / 'f/:'CR ~ k16370A000100010029-4 your office and sit down. He will signal his manner and bearing in the way he walks in. But there is more to it than that. Grooming is very significant. STEP 3: Establish rapport (time: two minutes) This is the most important part of any interview, regardless of how long or short it may be. Establishing confidence in the interviewee and a common ground be- tween yourself and the interviewee deserves more time than any other step in a short interview. When you are rushed, it may seem foolish to waste time on pleasantries. But unless you do "waste" a little time in this way, the interviewee may never give you the information you want. He may be too tense to answer freely or too distrustful to speak can- didly. Something in the applicant's resume or application form will probably give you a common ground. For example, "I see you studied at Penn State. Did you by any chance know Professor So-and- io? 11 Talk enough to get the interviewee talking, and establish the fact that this is going to be a two-way interview, not just one way on either side. These two minutes of ground-work conversation do more than establish rapport. They also give you a basis for making some judgments. For example, how well does this person express himself? Does his vocabu- lary signal anything about him? Does his personality seem to match the requirements of the job? STEP 4 Find out what he wants (time: one minute) Here is where many interviewers make a mistake. They start telling rather than asking. You want the time you invest in the interview to work to your advantage. Therefore, use the first minutes to find out what the applicant can offer you. To spell out the requirements of the job for the applicant is of only secondary importance at this point. Now, in four or five minutes, you should have a pretty good preliminary picture of the individual based on his resume or application form, the way he presents himself, some preliminary conversation, and what he tells you about the kind of job he wants.

Save time by telling him so, and end the interview. STEP 5: Tell what you offer (time: one minute) One of the biggest causes of employee turnover is: "The job isn't what they told me it would be. " Some personnel people and other employers have a tendency to oversell jobs- -to exaggerate the plusses and ignore the minuses. The tendency is understandable, but experience shows it is not good business. Furthermore, if your compensation is fair and working conditions reasonable, there is no need to oversell a job. When the time comes, sell it, but don't oversell it. At this stage in the interview state what the job is. Define it clearly, concisely and simply. Spell out the STEP 6: Invite questions (time: one minute) advantages and the disadvantages. Having spelled out the job, invite the candidate to question you about it. Chances are he will have some questions; the ques- tions he asks and how he asks them may reveal some new things about The questions he asks and the comments he makes will indicate his degree of "stretch" or flexibility. He commit- ted himself when he spelled out, in advance, the kind of job he wants. Then you spelled out a job that probably did not match his interests ex- actly. Does he indicate a willingness and an ability to stretch himself to match the requirements of the job, or do his questions and comments indicate he is thinking more in terms of how he might mold the job to his own satisfaction? No one is harder to deal with than an employee who won't stretch.

IPt370A000100010029-4 the job requirements and seems reluctant to stretch. But if he is close to the job and is flexible, keep going a little longer. STEP 7: Ask your own questions (time: one minute) Now it is your turn to ask some questions. The best rule to follow is: Ask only specific questions, never general questions. General questions invite general answers; these are not worth much. Specific questions help you get pertinent information without delay. Use your questions to determine the candidate's full potential. Is he overqualified for the job? If so, he may be as unsuitable as someone who is underqualified. There are no stock questions for every interview. Jobs are different, and each candidate you talk to is different, with an individual persona- lity. But there is one key question that is useful in. many interviews. It's not meant to be a trick; it is a question that produces interesting answers. The question is: "Which are you more interested in: your potential salary or the type of work you'll do?" Neither answer is necessarily condemnatory, but it can certainly tell you a good deal about the person. Ask questions like this toward the end of the interview, when you are more likely to get candid answers. STEP 8: End with friendly honesty (time: one minute) You will save yourself a lot of time if you know how to cut interviews short-amicably. In ending try to accomplish two things: First, re-establish rapport. Use a few seconds and a few friendly words to indicate that you have enjoyed meeting the applicant and have been interested in what he has told you about himself. Second, tell the applicant exactly where he stands. Don't give him hopes you know won't materialize. If you have decided against him for the job, tell him directly that you have talked to other candidates who are more exactly qualified. This can be done in a concise way, but a way that does not imply criticism or dissatisfaction. Of course, if the candidate looks good and deserves further consideration, tell him so. And tell him what will happen next. In this case, it is well Approved For Release 2002/01/29 :gCIIAT-RDP78-06370A000100010029-4 28 CIA INTERNAL USE ONLY SECRET Approved For ReleiL4 iV( 1i`. by -R "TK-06370A000100010029-4 to end by reviewing briefly the advantages of the job, and the advantages of working for your company. No interview--even a capsule interview--should be conducted with stop watch in hand. Neither should it be forced to match a rigid pattern that prevents a natural sequence of steps from beginning to end. Consider this interview pattern as no more than a working guide. Experience shows it conserves time and makes short interviews work. Executives who carry heavy responsibility may not, after all, be prime targets for a heart at- tack, according to a report in BUSINESS WEEK. A six-year study of 85, 000 Du Pont employees revealed a heart attack rate among vice-presi- dents, plant managers, and district sales man- agers of only 2. 2 per 1000--about half the four per 1000 rate among low-level managers. Mid- dle-management men immediately below the executive level had a rate slightly higher than executives: 2. 5 per 1000. Researchers point out that stress cannot be measured by circumstances confronting a per- son, but by his reaction to them. One man's stress may be another man's pleasure.
