Command Decision-Making. A Selected Review.
Abstract
To deal effectively with such problems, the commanders must be carefully trained. But trained in what. How should they be trained. Is it even possible to train a commander to deal more effectively with the unknown--to make better decisions and to make them faster. At this time, answers to such simple but basic questions are not available. If they are ever to be had, a systematic program of research is demanded. It is hardly necessary to add that no such program presently exists. Before such a program is under-taken, however, the present status of our working knowledge about command skills, duties and functions, i.e., command decision-making, should be care-determined.
