C2 - Less is More

Abstract

In order to ensure the domination in any battlefield of the future, the new generation of war fighters needs to be empowered and educated to practice Mission Command. The net effect will be to allow Superior Commanders more time (a precious commodity) to deal with the delicate transition political requirements to strategy and provide relevant Command and Control. The direction and guidance provided to the unit commander will allow him to best employ his team, platform and tactics. The force who capitalizes on developing intuitive leadership and decision making at the unit level will have an advantage against any adversary and enhance the overall operational warfighting effort and strategic effect.
