to our Air Force Reserve family . The
holiday season is upon us and we want
to take a few minutes to talk about
some important topics as we go into the
new year as a command team . We have
two priorities ready now and
transforming for the future . Four
months ago we published the task order
laying out our expectations for every
airman in the command . The purpose of
the task order is simple to ensure
accountability at all levels . To focus
the Air Force Reserve on what we need
to do to be ready . Each of us has a
part to play from individual airmen
being accountable for their readiness
to commanders developing training plans
for every single airmen to the
headquarters , aggressively working to
remove barriers to unit readiness .
We're going to constantly measure and
adjust as necessary to ensure our
airmen are adequately resourced and
trained . In addition to our two
priorities , we have three foundational
activities , the first being human
capital management . This is a
deliberate approach to ensure each unit
is structured and staffed appropriately
to accomplish the mission . The next
activity is financial management .
We've developed powerful business
analytic tools that allow us to see our
financial position in near real time .
These tools help us to manage our
portfolio on a daily basis and allow us
to execute at speed and make timely and
accurate resource decisions , ensuring
an accurate program objective
memorandum or Palm is our third
foundational activity . The Palm aligns
resources directly to requirements .
Having an accurate Palm is essential to
ensuring we're able to modernize
proportionally and concurrently with
the active duty providing the equipment
and resources to train you to be part
of the Air Force the nation needs , and
more importantly , the Air Force
Reserve . The nation needs to prevail
in long term strategic competition .
The last topic is our 2023 road show .
The boss and I are planning to visit as
many of you out in the field as
possible to witness firsthand how
you're transforming for the future . We
want to hear your voice on what we can
do back at the headquarters to remove
barriers to help you be missing . Ready
and ready now , we're proud to lead the
Air Force Reserve into 2023 look
forward to hearing from you on how we
can be ready for whatever challenges
may be on the horizon , on behalf of
Kathy and myself and on behalf of Edith
and myself . Happy holidays .
