Military Leadership Education: What War College Journals Seem to Suggest

Abstract

The new, complex taxonomy of leader behavior suggested by Yukl is used to examine the content of the journals of the War Colleges of the Air force, Army, and Navy. There are several purposes for such a content analysis. First, if these journals reflect the educational content of the War Colleges, this analysis would reflect that. Second, two time frames are used to examine changes between a period of War (1966-1970) and a period of peace (1977-1982). Third, these data could form the basis for discussion of numerous points: Is the education relevant for the time when most of students would need it? Do the journals reflect the educational content of the War Colleges? And so on.
