Personnel Offensive (Phase 1). Executive Summary

Abstract

An assumption was made that incoming personnel during the 1970's will differ in social and personal characteristics from persons who entered the Army in earlier decades. It was further assumed that because of the differences in entering personnel, it would be necessary to modify Army policy and doctrine regarding personnel management and administration. The objectives of this study are to: (1) Describe the changing characteristics of incoming military personnel during the 1970's. (2) Determine the effects of the changing characteristics of incoming personnel in the 1970's upon Army personnel policy and doctrine. (3) Propose alternative Army leadership techniques, personnel policies, and doctrine regarding troop leadership, personnel management and administration. (4) To identify areas where sufficient information is lacking and describe the requirements for Army studies or research in these areas.
