Preparation of Leaders

Abstract

The objective of this study is to describe the learning requirements for preparing adaptive leaders at brigade echelon and below for the U.S. Army, then to propose an explicit methodology to develop these adaptive leaders of all grades in both institution and unit. The methodology should serve as a foundation for subsequent learning models to be developed within Army Training and Doctrine Command. The study describes 12 learning choices which determine learning program design; then it recommends development of an Adaptive Leader Learner supportive of structured practice. It then draws on existent training doctrine and the TRADOC Digital Learning Strategy to propose 13 guidelines for creating learning models. Finally, it recommends specific guidance for direction of actual development of the learning models.
