Leutrell Osborne, Sr. During his 27 years of service as a CIA Case Officer and Communications Security Officer, “Mike”, as he was known by his colleagues and contacts throughout the intelligence community, served in over 30 countries. As a CIA Spy Manager, he supervised CIA agents, spies and assets on 3 continents in what historians and so-called espionage experts have termed the most fertile period of domestic and international spying of the modern era.
He continues to perform threat analyses for both public and private sector clients, and is considered a counter-terrorism expert. This fact was underscored after the 9/11 attacks when he was called to appear on BET with one of the key members of Congress to provide insight into the attacks.
In l989, “Mike” obtained several temporary federal appointments and eventually secured a position at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) for five years. Given his unique background one may say that he resumed his continued in service to his government, accepting a position at OPM where he performed as Transformation Management Officer (code named “Change Agent”).
The position at OPM was very familiar to him – one in which he served for six years in the CIA’s ComSec Division, where he re-invented processes and significantly impacted/changed practices of the intelligence community cultivating communications security. While at OPM, Mr. Osborne oversaw programs of the Small Business Administration (SBA), vociferously advocating for small business participation in government contracting. During his OPM tenure, he also served as Chair of the Office of Small Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) Council, coordinating the Federal Government small business programs.
After 31 total years of Federal Government service, he retired and turned his attention to the private sector. Currently, he is the Founder and President of Leutrell Osborne & Associates (LOA) and provides security consulting and business re-engineering consulting to enterprises seeking to do business with the Federal Government.
