Think Tank Thursday Helps Workforce Connect and Engage - Think Tank Thursday or ‘T3’ as it’s often referred to by members of the command was an initiative created in May 2022 to showcase all the specialized knowledge, technical skills, and experience throughout the workforce at Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity (MCTSSA). The success of T3 presentations at MCTSSA is a result of detailed coordination and employee engagement which can be difficult at times with scheduling multiple tests, hosting distinguished visitors and performing day-to-day operations. Despite competing time requirements, the program has turned into a staple in the monthly battle rhythm and an engaging way for employees to maximize their contributions to the command which is known for “Making Marines More Capable.” (Graphic design by Amy Forsythe, Public Affairs Officer, MCTSSA)
