3.14. Centralised control, decentralised execution. CEMA battlespace
execution will require a command and control approach that emphasises
centralised control but decentralised execution. As well as integrating
our own offensive actions, we must be able to mitigate the threat from
adversaries’ cyber or electromagnetic weapons while preventing negative
impact to, and from, friendly or neutral systems.
3.15. Development challenges for Defence. The CEMA evolution required
by Defence roles and responsibilities presents a change which needs support
through all Defence lines of development. It also requires each of us to
change, cognitively and behaviourly, so that CEMA becomes routine. This
cannot be achieved wholly through training but comes from embracing
change. It should be noted that human factors present the biggest impact to
CEMA in terms of enabling or threatening its success.

3.16. Training and education. To prevent CEMA remaining the preserve of
technically capable and interested individuals a programme of training and
education is key to the successful integration of CEMA if it is to be ingrained
in routine.42
