The person delivering the Brief. He has the ability to rapidly assimilate complex material, deliver routine news as if it were reports of the second coming, and generate a re-task from the customer, guaranteeing larger contracts. He reports back on the satisfaction level of the customer, clearly defines new missions and guides the customer on the path to reality. When the customer says “I want to know everything about….” The Briefer explains that no one knows everything about anything, certainly not for what the customer is paying. He does offer the “Know Almost Everything Package” if the contract is tripled. The Briefer makes or breaks an intelligence operation. The occupational disease of the Briefer: he starts to believe that the purpose of an op is to make him look good in the briefing and truly believes that he is the only one of value in the company. Great briefers are narcissists and must be bitch slapped regularly.
