Training Technology for the Operational Level of War

Abstract

This report examines the application of standards of performance concept of training for the Army's senior leadership at the operational level of war. Considering the environment and funding constraints on large-scale maneuver exercises, technology is the key to training. Air Land Battle Doctrine should be the basis for training today's senior leaders and for developing future leaders. The key tenet of AirLand Doctrine, synchronization, appears to be a construct that can be developed as a standard of performance measurement using state-of-the-art technology. In addition, successful application of the synchronization concept at the operational level of war requires the majority of the critical skills necessary for executive level leadership. Keywords: Army training; Executive level; Cognitive skills; Synchronization; AirLand battle doctrine; Joint exercise support system. (KT)
