About

Naval planning is fundamental to leadership. Planning pro- vides the discipline to focus on the objectives, intentions, capabilities, and resources required to accomplish assigned missions. Planning also requires commanders to estimate the capabilities of a potential adver- sary and to evaluate options. : In a constantly changing world where geopolitical and eco- nomic realities alter national and regional power structures, the U.S. Approved tar pubiic reieanm Navy and Marine Corps must be ever vigilant as we deploy forces around the world. Naval planning, conducted on a continuing basis, ensures that naval forces are ready and poised to respond quickly to crises or hostilities. When applied effectively, naval plans focus the commander's efforts to support all levels of naval, joint, or multina- tional operations.
