This is a CNN interview with Leutrell "Mike" Osborne, the original Black Man in the CIA. The interview breifly covers Mike's 27 year career in the CIA as a Case Officer and Communications Security Specialist.
Leutrell M. Osborne, Sr. is a recognized national and international security expert who provided executive business coaching services during the ten years since retiring from the Federal Government in 1994. For 26 years, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) sent him to over 30 countries on three different continents as a Case Officer and Communications Security Officer. While serving his last five years of Federal Government employment he was at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Mr. Osborne performed small business advocacy services overseeing programs of the Small Business Administration (SBA). After retiring from the OPM, he interviewed business and government officials on small business contracting opportunities in the Federal Government. During that period and especially while he was a CIA Case Officer, Mr. Osborne debriefed and interviewed foreign and US officials on threats and security matters pertaining to United States homeland security. This extensive expertise enables Mr. Osborne to incorporate human and technical intelligence information collecting as core competencies of his inspirational leadership style. Mr. Osborne is a native of Washington D.C, who now serves as the leadership source at the International Institute of Culture (IIC) which is an emerging virtual university that allows entrepreneurs to build their enterprises using the Internet.
