Developing Chiefs of Supply

Abstract

The Air Force Supply Executive Board was concerned with the extremely high non-selection rate of officers for Chief of supply positions, by the major air commands. A previous study identified skills that were lacking within the broad category of human skills. This study undertook the task of identifying specific human skills that could be tested. The study had three objectives: (1) Determining what human skills are critical for becoming a Chief of supply. (2) Determining whether supply officers are deficient in these critical human skills. (3) Determining the preferred method of training for correcting those deficiencies. The methodology was based initially on literature review designed to identify individual human skills. (jes)
