Think Like a Commander - Excellence in Leadership: Educating Army Leaders With the Power Hungry Film

Abstract

This instructor's guide is the first of two research products that describe how to use Think Like a Commander Excellence in Leadership (TLAC-XL) in an instructional setting. This guide describes how instructors can use the film from TLAC-XL as a case study to facilitate discussion on various leadership topics, particularly those that pertain to creating effective interpersonal relationships. Instructors may find this training tool highly relevant for Captains, Lieutenants, and junior noncommissioned officers (NCOs) expected to engage in stability and support operations (SASO) in the Middle East. This guide provides an analysis and hard copy of the case study; discusses the teaching themes embedded in the case study; presents tips for promoting effective discussion; and offers lesson objectives, discussion questions and answers, and an overview of the case study as an instructional vehicle. Information about how to obtain the case study and technical requirements is included in the document.
