AETC commander highlights “mission over function” during AFA
Lt. Gen. Brian Robinson, commander of Air Education and Training Command, shares his perspective on how the command is building an expanded, people-focused footprint in support of the service’s efforts to reoptimize for Great Power Competition during an Air Force and Space Forces Association Air, Space and Cyber Conference panel in National Harbor, Md, on Sept. 17, 2024. Robinson joined other senior leaders from across the Department of the Air Force on the main stage for the “Standing Up the New Commands” panel to explain to the force new initiatives that will be realized under the soon-to-be redesignated Airman Development Command and share why a “Mission Over Function” mindset matters when it comes to force development.
