The 1998 Marine Corps Leadership Survey.

Abstract

This report summarizes the findings from the 1998 Marine Corps Leadership Survey completed by 955 Marine Corps leaders, both enlisted and officer. The survey was developed by Headquarters Marine Corps (MW) in conjunction with the Navy Personnel Research and Development Center (NPRDC). The surveys were mailed to leaders on a Headquarters-level distribution list for senior-level leadership. Completed surveys were analyzed and summarized by researchers at NPRDC. The overall survey response rate was 62%, with Commanding Officers, Officers in Charge, and Non-commissioned Officers replying to the survey. The findings indicate strong support among leadership for MWR programs: most leaders stated they encourage Marines to use MWR, they believe MWR is a valuable component of Marine Corps life, and that MWR improves the quality of life of their Marines. Details regarding leaders' ratings of program importance, MWR contributions to outcomes, MWR deployment support, MWR funding, MWR communications, and leader satisfaction with MWR may be found in this report. In addition, 63% of those who did respond to the survey provided written comments that are summarized in Appendix A. A copy of the survey itself may be found in Appendix B.
