Move CIA directorates out of the Washington area
What the document says“the Director should break the cabal of bureaucrats in D.C. by permanently moving various directorates”
The chapter names the Directorate of Support and the Directorate of Science and Technology as examples, and suggests opening campuses outside Washington where analysts and other experts could contribute virtually. It also asks for broader recruitment, faster onboarding and openness to hiring private-sector experts directly into senior posts.
What the document actually says“the Director should break the cabal of bureaucrats in D.C. by permanently moving various directorates”
The Director should break up the crowd in Washington. He should move whole units away for good.
Most of this agency sits near Washington. The book says that makes a closed circle. It wants some divisions moved far away for good.
Read against the documents indexed here on August 26, 2026, and nothing was found that answers this. Executive Order 14207 eliminates the Federal Executive Institute, a leadership training center for federal managers. It closes a program rather than relocating any part of an agency, and concerns training rather than where directorates sit. Nothing indexed here moves a CIA directorate out of the Washington area or opens a campus elsewhere. That is a record of a search, not a finding that nothing has happened: an act this site does not hold, or one that answers the proposal in words unlike its own, would not be caught by it.
