# Build Our Team

## U.S. Southern Command is part of a larger team that includes interagency partners, Allies, and Partner Nations. Together, this team advances democratic ideals, mitigates security threats in the Western Hemisphere, and underpins our integrated deterrence against our adversaries.

To improve our contributions to the broader team and meet the growing challenges in the AOR, we must build enduring advantages through our people by cultivating a resilient and adaptable workforce. We will promote a learning organization that embraces training, processes, and professional development.

Professional Military Education and training will focus on supporting the execution of assigned joint warfighting tasks, with the priority of countering malign state actors. We will continue to look for ways to improve internal processes and efficiency while eliminating silos and firewalls. This begins with looking at our structures, roles, and responsibilities to ensure we are postured to think deeply, act routinely, and retain the flexibility to maneuver physically and intellectually in both steady state and crisis operations. Our people are our most important resource, so we must have systems and processes in place to foster their personal and professional wellness. Our partners will associate SOUTHCOM with professionalism, competence, and high standards worth emulating. We will constantly look for ways to strengthen unity of effort and alignment in everything we do.
