****Broaden and generalize the topic do not be specific about just a certain surveillance program. The topic raised is about surveillance (generally) and even more about surveillance in combination with the secrecy that surrounds it might afford a chance to examine the leadership issues without going down program-specific rabbit holes. If you want to see an example of a oversight report, check out Privacy and Civil Liberty Oversight Board (PCLOB) report I will attach it. (I’m not suggesting that you read the entire thing. . .but it discusses some of the trust considerations).
— Avoid analyzing culture or historic leadership actions of any particular organization/agency. Instead, focus on generalized leadership impacts and concerns created by the topic, approaches that you think would be best, and actions you would take to communicate those and implement them.***
