Increasing Unit Effectiveness in a Dynamic Environment by Implementing a Leadership Mathematical Model

Abstract

The Ukrainian Army is in a transition period that requires flexible, adaptive leadership with a contemporary vision. The problem of improving unit effectiveness is very topical, because old leadership does not correspond to modern requirements and does not facilitate rapid development. The lack of understanding the need for change in a dynamic environment makes a military unit ineffective. Providing guidance to leaders on how to lead their subordinates in a dynamic environment is valuable, because it will make them adapt their behavior to modern requirements and make their military units effective in any operation. The purpose of this research is to find a leadership model that will significantly increase unit effectiveness in a dynamic environment. This model could be used as the foundation for change in the leadership culture of the Ukrainian Army. The originality of this work will be its use of mathematical formulas to explain the key leadership methods and ideas proposed in the study.
