JIE’s advocate. The Joint Information Environment, DOD’s vision and strategy for IT reform, will come to pass if Doherty has anything to say about it. Last year, he shaped key information provided to the Joint Chiefs of Staff that successfully garnered its reaffirmation of JIE’s importance as vital to improving warfighter capability and the needed cultural shift to operate IT as an enterprise. He has also overseen critical cybersecurity upgrades across DOD. Doherty is a “soldier’s soldier” regarded for his technical prowess and operational foresight, and his mastery of IT makes it a critical weapon for DOD, the Joint Staff and U.S. allies.
