Perspectives on Leadership

Abstract

In this era of constant engagement, the role of our Civilian workforce is increasingly vital to the accomplishment of the Army s mission. Army Civilians serve at the forefront of operations, provide direct and indirect support to our Soldiers, and make enormous contributions to the Global War on Terror. As the proponent for Army Civilian leadership, I am proud to announce the publication of Perspectives on Leadership, the first booklength publication by the Army Management Staff College (AMSC), the Department of the Army s premier educational institution for Civilian Leadership and Management. The Army is a lifelong learning organization, with a strong focus on leader development. The work accomplished in recent years by the Army Training and Leader Development Panels and the Review of Education, Training, and Assignments for Leaders resulted in the development and implementation of the Civilian Education System at AMSC, which is in direct support for Army Initiative No. 5. All of these efforts have further accelerated the Army Civilian leader development program. Perspectives on Leadership, authored by serving faculty and staff at AMSC, is a welcome addition to the program and serves as a guide for Army Civilian Corps leaders throughout their careers. It is written to guide the reader sequentially across an Army civilian career and serves as a leadership reference that we can all add to our toolboxes of knowledge.
