Case Study: The Australian Defence Force

Employment – The ADF employees more than 80,000 Australians citizens which increases the employment rate

The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) are a unique institution consisting of a wide cross section of our nation’s population. It is due to this vast representation of cultural and regional upbringings that there lies a requirement for an integration process into military life. In this paper I will discuss some training procedures utilized during my basic recruit school training in Cornwallis, Nova Scotia, and the theories and models of psychology and behaviour they were based upon.

infantry, armoured, cavalry). After this policy was established, 50 women had applied for roles in combat corps that year, of which 20 were successful. This success rate carries across to ranks and positions in the ADF; with 14.9% of the permanent workforce being comprised of women, it is only a matter of time before Australians see a female Chief of Defence Force (CDF) (Defence.gov.au, 2014).

To me the Defense team had the most credible evidence. For example, the defence team had a referral saying Red Chief had a rope and tied a student to the bathroom door. Now the story they were going with made sense with that evidence because they said that Red Chief tied up Bill “Old Hank” so it made it more convincible that Red Chief was guilty. Even though the prosecution team won I still believe that the defence team was right because their story added up better. Also i think that the defence team had more evidence to prove their case. Therefore the defence had better evidence and should have won.

The ADF, as a national employer, is not immune from the challenges of a shrinking population pool from which it traditionally recruits from. The increase in recruiting is not just about numbers, it must also attract people with the qualities and skills to be able to expand the workforce, increase capability and develop the organisation. Exploiting the benefits of a diverse and more balanced gender based workforce will increase combat capability and the reputation of the ADF and is not just a case of being a social experiment.

Australia and Australians naturally pursue to advance and maintain the security, economic prosperity and advocate our liberal democratic values by committing and showcasing them internationally. These three aspects are crucial and considered Australia’s key national interests due to their importance and essential benefits. Defence can support and aid us in recovery when we face unpredictable events of adversity. Our liberal democracy demonstrates a strong belief and core system which allows Australians to have political and economic freedom whilst having an approach to international affairs. Australia’s liberal democracy is also strongly linked to and requires a stable and resourceful economy in order for it to function. This enables

The 4th Armor Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) has undergone significant changes in the past three years. The brigade was once one of the best maneuver brigades in Forces Command (FORSCOM) but is now riddled with issues ranging from lack of a clear vision for the unit to low morale, and ethical concerns. As the incoming Brigade Commander, I have had 30 days to assess the unit and review historical information and an evaluation from the Centers for Army Lessons Learned (CALL). The most critical leadership problem in the 4th ABCT is the lack of a clear vision for the unit. I will use Kotter’s Eight Step Change Model and the Seven-Step Vision Process along with Kotter’s Eight Step change model to establish goals and implement organizational change. By implementing change using Kotter’s model and the seven-step vision process, I can alleviate some of the underlying morale and ethical issues while providing a picture of the future.

AmeriCorps is the first opportunity that I’ve encountered that will allows me to incorporate both my community services volunteering experiences and my career passions. I have experiences in community outreach and engagement by being a program coordinator and I have healthcare experiences through my services in the hospital playroom. Yet, my career passion is to combine the two and work with the community on health issues and concerns that underserved and underrepresented populations have in regards to community health. With the AmeriCorps program, I am able used the skills and knowledge that I’ve gained from my experiences and turn them into a real setting and make an impact on the lives of the community.

As armed citizens, we face unique challenges. We must use a series of skills in tandem, creating the challenge of managing diverse strategies, tactics, techniques and tools, while most of our training is separated. Mixed Martial Arts once faced this challenge, each art specializing in a subset of technical skills that lead to a reduced ability to deal with different styles of attack, eventually the essential fundamentals were fused in cohesive core. The same conundrum faces the armed citizen.

“War”. As a kid growing up in America, it is a word that you become very accustom to hearing whether it is from your television, parents, or teachers. In America’s history, Americans have always been adamant about upholding the strength of their Armed Forces and making sure no other country becomes a threat of any sort. In the late 1800s, the United States Armed Forces created the military which consist of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard. All these forces are obviously there for some reason which are reported on television becoming the talk of the American adults and onto their children. Also, as children get higher in their grade level they begin learning for themselves about the military. I couldn’t tell you about how other children took in the information of these Armed Forces, but I will tell you about mine.

On Wednesday, March 22, 2017 approximately 1030 hours, Security Services had a meeting in 2 Medical Park, Conference room to discuss medication (prescriptions) coming up missing. These occurrences happen over five times this year to date.

Mission Australia is a non-denominational Christian community service organisation that has been helping people to regain their independence for over 155 years.

The ADF recognises that mental illness such as PTSD that results from the pressures of the military service has significant negative impacts on capability. This led to the development of the 2011 ADF Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy which focusses on capability through mental fitness. The strategy lays out six strategic objectives:

Rob needs to get his facts straight. The perps in the incident were not wearing body armor; but tactical style vests which held there gear. (Ammo, clips etc.) Regardless, your point suggesting a single armed citizen wouldn't make a difference in a situation like this makes absolutely no sense. While I agree they're are no guarantees, firing shots back at the perps changes the whole game. Even if you don't hit the mark, your

Capacity, Scheduling and Production and Inventory Control. There will be a gradual change in stocking policy until more raw materials and finished goods are carried in inventory. These changes will be needed to support higher volume production and to achieve better customer service (reduce lead times). As a result, internal changes in production and inventory control (PIC) will occur. PIC will need to upgrade the manual system to the new computer, and they will have to make the computer system effective so it is not duplicated by the manual system.
