Abstract
The purpose of this research is to see if the employees at the Tank Automotive and Armament Command (TACOM) Life Management Command (LCMC) agree that their leaders possess the skills, as identified in this research paper, needed to lead the organization in the 21st century. It is not the intention of the researcher to validate or verify the research completed by any prior Senior Service College Fellows (SSCF) class. The skills were identified from a literature review that shows what skills are needed to lead a 21st century global organization. This research focuses on TACOM employees at the GS-13 (or equivalent) level and below. The researcher surveyed civilian employees within four organizations at TACOM. These organizations are the Integrated Logistics and Support Center (ILSC), the Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC), the Program Executive Office for Ground Combat Support (PEO-GCS) and the Program Executive Office for Combat Support and Combat Office Support (PEO-CS&CSS). The survey consists of 45 questions that address each of the skills identified in research literature, one question to rank the skills one open ended question and 5 demographic questions.
