  the concept of operations and determine whether results are advancing the unit toward the desired end state.
  STRUCTURE/PARTICIPANTS

  in the working group include personnel from the warfighting functional cells (as appropriate to the mission),
  the coordinating cells, the special staff, IRC managers (organic and augmenting), subordinate unit IO officers,
  and augmenting IO units or teams. Table 6-1 on page 6-4 provides an example listing of the participants as
  well as sample responsibilities.
  IO WORKING GROUP IN ANTICIPATION OF/RESPONSE TO CRISIS OR SIGNIFICANT INCIDENT
  6-9. The IO working group convenes as soon as feasible before or after an event. Anyone can request the
  convening of the IO working group to deal with crisis or incident through the IO officer who, in consultation
  with the G-3 (S-3) and commander, determines the merits of the request and those personnel who should
  comprise the working group's initial membership. The working group's purpose is to determine the additional
  measures, activities, and effects that must be undertaken or generated in order to sustain operational
  advantage in the information environment. The group also seeks to mitigate possible negative consequences
