Senior Officers and Strategic Leader Development

Abstract

Changing demands on the Armed Forces coupled with the rapid pace and increasing frequency of deployments are not only affecting the exercise of strategic leadership but also how the military inculcates the necessary qualities in commanders. This conclusion is based on a study of senior leaders in all five services and several government agencies. By analyzing first-hand accounts of what contributed to personal growth the research found that while models for developing military leaders are sound, future stresses will severely test their ability to adapt to encourage conditions.
