GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  Situation.  In preparation for the FY22 slating season, RAM will address individual and command concerns during the FY21-FY22 RAM Command Visit Virtual Roadshow.
2.  Mission.  From September 2021 to February 2022, RAM will virtually visit designated commands to conduct key leader engagements and monitor interviews in order to address manpower issues and assist Marines in making well-informed career decisions.
3.  Execution
    a.  Intent.  Provide commands with information pertaining to manpower management policies, assignments, opportunities to join the Active Reserve (AR) program, support talent management of Marines, and facilitate opportunities for Marines to discuss future assignments with their monitor.
    b.  Concept of Operations.  RAM leadership, AR PMOS monitors, and the AR SDA monitor will coordinate with host command’s Site Coordinator to schedule key leader engagements and monitor interviews.  Host commands may be asked to coordinate interviews for supported units listed below.  Key leader engagements with host commands will be scheduled prior to or during the virtual visit.  Marines are encouraged to view the FY22 RAM Roadshow brief digitally on the link provided below prior to speaking with their monitor.  If Marines are not able to coordinate a time to speak with their monitor or their command is not listed, they are encouraged to email their monitor directly to coordinate an interview outside of these given dates.
