Excellence in Navy Recruiting: A Look at High Performing Navy Recruiting Districts
Abstract
This field study identifies and describes the attributes associated with excellent Navy Recruiting Districts. Phase One of the study discusses the opinions of more than one hundred officers, civilian and enlisted personnel on Navy Recruiting Command and Recruiting Area staffs as to characteristics and performance of excellent districts. Phase Two of the study identifies seven broad categories that we labeled 'Measures of Excellence' (MOEs). The 'Measures' described the attributes of excellence derived from observations and sixty seven interviews at two districts identified as excellent. Although it may be premature to offer a 'model' of an excellent recruiting district. These 'Measures' provide a useful means for presenting our findings. The seven Navy Recruiting district 'Measures of Excellence' (MOEs) are: Leadership; Systems in Place; Taking Care of People; Communication; Teamwork; Command Climate; and Making Goal with Integrity. Each attribute is discussed and illustrated from the experiences of the officers, civilians, and enlisted personnel designed to the excellent districts.
