Future Operating Environment

The Future Operating Environment (FOE) refers to the predicted landscape in which organizations, especially military or security forces, will operate in the coming years. It considers technological advances, geopolitical changes, societal shifts, and emerging threats. Understanding the FOE helps organizations prepare strategies, develop capabilities, and adapt to evolving conditions to effectively achieve their goals. It’s like planning for the weather—anticipating future conditions so actions can be tailored for success in a dynamic world.
