The document says “shouldWho acts: CIAHow: internal managementp. 209 in the PDF
What the document says

“the Director should break the cabal of bureaucrats in D.C. by permanently moving various directorates”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 209

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”

Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 209
That sentence, in plain words

The Director should break up the crowd in Washington. He should move whole units away for good.

What this is about

Most of this agency sits near Washington. The book says that makes a closed circle. It wants some divisions moved far away for good.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
