Senior Leadership Capstone Project For Senior and Master Chief Petty Officers

Prepared by: USNSCC National Headquarters

LETTER TO CADETS AND ADULT LEADERS Dear Cadets, Adult Leaders, and Families:

National Headquarters is thrilled to begin the Senior Leadership Capstone experience with you!

The Senior Leadership Capstone project will be a significant departure from the course requirements with which you are already familiar from the previous rates, namely the Polaris Advancement Courses (PAC). For advancement to Senior and Master Chief Petty Officer, cadets will plan, implement, and publish an independent project of their choice and design that could potentially impact the entire USNSCC and leave a lasting legacy for the entire field.

We will be using a well-researched design process called Project Based Learning (PBL) to structure the entire experience for cadets and adult leaders alike. With minimal guidance from a trusted mentor officer, the cadet will launch, research, implement, and publish their projects. Cadets and mentors will be provided PBL documentation to organize the entire process from start to finish. However, we want cadets to be at the helm.

There are four primary stages to the PBL process: Launch, Research, Development, and Presentation. The research and development stages are cyclical, insofar as cadets may need to engage in repeated drafting and revision to achieve a successful outcome. In order to fulfill requirements for Senior Chief, cadets will only be required to complete the first two phases, a process designed to take between four and six months. To advance to Master Chief, the cadet must continue this same project through the final two phases, which will likely be an additional six months.

Projects will be evaluated on a rolling basis as they are completed by a member of our volunteer pool of reviewers, which may include active and retired members of the Navy and Coast Guard. All evaluation tools and procedures will be shared in an effort to be as supportive and transparent as possible. We will also provide sample projects for your review that meet our expectations in terms of effort and impact.

Cadets will work on these projects as individuals and not as part of a team.

As parents, guardians, caregivers, and leaders, we encourage you to discuss this project with cadets and inquire about its progress. Please be as supportive and patient as possible; however, the cadet is piloting this ship. It is their responsibility to acquire resources, answer tough questions, and ask for guidance.

Cadets may also fail in his or her first attempts, or their project may not turn out as expected. That's perfectly fine. We can learn just as much, if not more, from frustration and failure. Developing advanced leadership skills through this process is more important than outcome, although we will do our level best to set everyone up for success.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to your chain of command if you have any questions.

Very Respectfully,

USNSCC National Headquarters

JUNE 2021

Welcome, Chief!

Congratulations once again on your advancement to Chief! You should also be commended for your dedication to the USNSCC and desire for continued advancement.

This guide provides all the information you need to successfully complete your Senior Leadership

Capstone, which is required for advancement to Senior and Master Chief Petty Officer.

Senior Leadership Capstone A capstone typically refers to a crowning achievement, a task or event occurring at the end of a career. Your capstone project will certainly become your greatest achievement to date as a cadet and potentially becoming a lasting legacy that you leave with the USNSCC.

The overall project planning process has four stages, the first two required for advancement to Senior Chief and the final two for Master Chief. As you begin the planning phases, make sure it is a topic on which you can focus for up to a year!

A local mentor of your choice-likely a home unit officer-will offer support and guidance throughout this process. You are at the helm; therefore, it is entirely up to you as to whether or not this project succeeds.

Let us begin!

JUNE 2021

Timeline The capstone will adhere to a precise sequence of milestones, each with its own deliverable that builds toward a final project.

Both the Senior Chief and Master Chief phases are designed for a maximum duration of six months each, which coincides with the required TIR for advancement. The entire process is laid out below, and will conclude with an evaluation, presentation, and publication.

1-2 Months

Project Launch: Entry Event and Driving Question Required for advancement to SCPO.

2-3 Months

Driving Questions Crafting a compelling Driving Question is one of the most critical and often overlooked tasks in the entire project planning process. This question drives your investigations and will be something you will live with for the entire duration of the project. So, think hard about this.

An effective driving question should meet the following criteria:

open-ended with more than one possible solution or outcome focused and actionable within the time frame inspires sustained and rigorous inquiry over several months will require additional knowledge, understanding, and leadership acquisition by the cadet entirely cadet-generated

Mentor Guidance Thank you for supporting cadets through the capstone process. The following are

recommendations for effective mentorship.

Review the PROJECT PATH document to see how you can support cadets through each stage of the project planning and implementation process.

Work with mentees to establish a clear and open line of communication; however, be mindful of our "two-deep" policy. Create an online folder using Google or Dropbox where cadets can upload documents and you can respond directly with comments.

milestones are reached, which includes submission of deliverables.

Reflection and feedback are critical when project

At minimum, schedule longer conversations with mentees when milestones and deliverables are due. However, communication should ideally occur more frequently on a biweekly or even weekly basis. A brief message, asking, "how are you doing" may be all that is necessary.

Recommendations for reflection...

Reflection describes the cognitive processes we use to make meaning of our experiences.

Mentors should carve out time and space during check-ins for cadets to share honest and open impressions about their progress to date. Use the cadet's

INDIVIDUAL WORK

REPORT to frame your conversations.

During less formal check-ins or when key milestones are achieved,

probe cadet thinking

with the following questions:

Why/how did you come to this conclusion?

What are other ways to look at this situation?

What else do you need to succeed (resources or information)?

What do you still have questions about?

JUNE 2021

Mentor Guidance (Continued) Reflection is NOT the time for evaluation; however,

critique and

feedback should occur when milestones and deliverables are due.

Some ground rules for critique and feedback...

Begin by acknowledging the positive Frame your comments and questions as seeking clarification Personalize critique with "I" statements such as: I think...

I wonder...

I noticed...

Be specific Remember, you are critiquing the work and not the person.

Be kind, be specific, and be helpful

We recommend the following protocol for

critique and feedback to the

cadet on deliverables and milestones.

1. Review deliverables and documents in advance of a conversation

(prior to

meeting) 2. Have the cadet explain their work or progress (with documentation) to date and also suggest what kind of feedback would be most helpful (what questions do they have or with what do they need help?)

(5 minutes)

3. In whichever area(s) they have determined, begin with positive ("warm") feedback, then move to constructive sharing of suggestions for improvement ("cool")

(6 to 8

minutes) a. Remember to personalize with "I" statements; that is, "I'm confused by this part" rather than, "This makes no sense to me!" b. Use questions whenever possible to deliver feedback or critique 4. Provide time for the cadet to respond to the feedback they've received 5. Conclude with an open dialogue about next steps

(3 to 5 minutes)

(2 minutes)

JUNE 2021

JUNE 2021

Cadet Guidance Congratulations once again on your achievements. Here is

additional

advice on the capstone process.

If possible, we recommend choosing a mentor outside of your immediate home unit. This will enable you to see the bigger picture and work with different people. Use the chain of command for assistance and keep your CO in the loop.

Plan, plan, and when you're done, plan again. The documents we've shared with you are not busywork. They are essential to the project design process, so take them seriously and be thoughtful when completing them.

We're certain you already know this: there are no silly questions!

Ask for clarification or counsel when you need it. If you're not finding any answers, use your chain of command.

Craft your driving question carefully. What will be your legacy with this capstone? Moreover, you may be sitting with this topic for roughly six to 12 months. Choose an issue that excites you.

This resource may be helpful with project design.

CAPSTONE PROJECT DESIGN ELEMENTS CHECKLIST Whichever form the project takes, the following criteria must be satisfied.

DOES THE PROJECT MEET THESE CRITERIA? KEY KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING, AND SUCCESS SKILLS The project requires additional knowledge and understanding derived from research, and necessitates critical thinking/problem solving, collaboration, and self-management in order to complete.

CHALLENGING PROBLEM OR QUESTION The project is based on a meaningful problem to solve or a question to answer, at the appropriate level of challenge, which is operationalized by an open-ended, engaging driving question.

SUSTAINED INQUIRY The project involves an active, in-depth process over time, in which cadets generate questions, find and use resources, ask further questions, and develop their own answers.

AUTHENTICITY The project has a real-world context, uses real-world processes, tools, and quality standards, makes a real impact, and/or is connected to cadets’ own concerns, interests, and identities.

CADET VOICE & CHOICE The project allows cadets to make some choices about the products they create, how they work, and how they use their time, guided by their mentor.

REFLECTION The project provides opportunities for cadets to reflect on what and how they are learning about leadership, and on the project’s design and implementation.

CRITIQUE & REVISION The project includes processes for cadets to give and receive feedback on their work, in order to revise their ideas and products or conduct further inquiry.

PUBLIC PRODUCT The project requires cadets to create a product that is presented or offered to cadets, adult leaders, or other members of the public.

Although this document primarily directs the mentor in his or her approval of the initial project plan, we encourage adults and cadets to discuss and review this form together in order to structure a conversation about the cadet's project.
