In each regiment and unit, internalization in values are promoted. However, its regulations are scattered. Given their importance for any army member in peace and war, it is essential to precisely determine what values best define the Officers of the Argentine Army. The main objective of the investigation is to determine the values that best describe the officers that allow them to face the complexity and challenges of the twenty-first-century. It was considered essential to analyze the current values that the institution supports and identify which values define the officers in the twenty-first-century. The research methodology uses a documentation review and qualitative analysis. For the study, a series of countries with a similar culture and language were analyzed, all of them being in the Latin American region. The findings and recommendations in this study will determine the core values on which a future leadership model should be built.
