There are very few things in the modern military of today or any military that has ever existed before our current military for that matter, that are more important than the rank structure and the the respect that is demanded of you by that rank structure. Those are two very important characteristics of every successful military unit. With added details here and there, in this essay I will mainly be discussing what respect actually is, how being respected is normally earned and in the military how it is demanded of you as a sub-ordinate to any ranks higher than you or in some cases any fellow military personnel who is more senior to you and why. On top of that I will be covering

Army leaders must balance the link between the Army’s culture and it’s climate and institutional practices. When there is a proper balance it has a huge impact on the mindset of the Army’s Soldiers. Their actions or inactions impacts the five key attributes of the profession, and the four fields of expertise, and have long term effects on the Army’s culture and climate. These actions influence Soldiers’ perceptions that they are serving professional who have answered the call of service to the republic, it is important that Soldiers understand that their role is a calling and not just a job.

This paper on Leadership will compare the primary differences and characteristics between the tactical leader and the organizational leader. I will provide you with the basics for development, characteristics, and the fundamentals that help guide and influence each leader’s style and how they influence Soldiers to follow them. Leaders at all levels demonstrate their values, knowledge, skills, and abilities in many different means and methods in

There are a number of significant difficulties for today’s military - the Global War on Terrorism or what has recently been termed the “Long War;” weapon system acquisitions and personnel draw downs. The focus of this paper is on one strategic component of the military quest—Leadership. More specifically, it will center on servant leadership and its impact on the military’s vision.

Leadership, according to the Army doctrine, represents individuals’ ability to influence people by providing purpose, direction, and motivation while operating to accomplish the mission and improving the organization (“Leadership” FM 6-22). However, the varying characteristics of individuals that the Army attracts may instill this doctrine in many different ways, leading to different representations of leadership. Some individuals choose to lead their subordinate in a stern matter, only displaying matured emotions and a “tough-loving” attitude to guide them in the right direction. Others

The main points of this article relate to the changing nature of warfare (think terrorism and advancements in technology) and the adjustments military leaders are obliged to make. Hence, according to the article, leaders must: a) be trained in critical thinking skills; b) be "committed to life-long [and self-directed] learning"; c) be willing to take the initiative to "diagnose" their goals, needs,

This paper explores how leadership styles affect U.S. Army communications. The sources of Army organizational power are considered, as are how those powers affect group communications. Several motivational theories are applied to the Army context. This paper explores the role communications plays as part of these theories. Finally discussed is the Army's workforce's commitment to the organization and their relationship to Army communications.

The importance of accountability and communication in the Military is so each and every personal is all on the same page. Also so our organization runs smooth. Communication is the heart of what makes the United States Army what it is today. Without communication vital information would not be passed down from the Chief of Command to a chain of Non Commissioned Officers to the soldiers. Not to mention, innocent lives would be in jeopardy, missions would be misconstrued, and simple information from NCO to soldier would be conflicted. The smallest amount of information is always imperative. For example, if a soldier goes out over the weekend and doesn’t inform anyone of he or she

Communication is an essential process that occurs in everyday life. According to the renowned author Virginia Satir, “communication is to a relationship what breathing is to maintaining life” (Brothers 41). Any situation in which interpersonal communication occurs may potentially give rise to conflict. Everyone has unique beliefs and values that are constantly being projected onto their social interactions (Adler? Pearson 2). In addition, the roles people assume create expectations that become associated with their labels (Adler, Pearson 6). In interpersonal exchanges, roles can certainly have an influence on how people act, and can control what information they decide to disclose. In the 1957 film, Paths of Glory, it is demonstrated that due to the roles that are assumed by the military personnel, the low-ranking soldiers have no choice but to be obedient and to show extreme deference to their superiors. This applies even when the judgment calls made by the superior officers will bring about moral harm and potentially cause the destruction of many lives. Within the movie, the character of General Paul Mireau demonstrates that a leader who uses coercive methods of communication is never effective in benefiting the majority of their group. At best, a coercive method of communication will serve to benefit the intimidator at the expense of all other parties to the communication. The reasons largely have to do with the high power distance that is created between the

Hierarchy in an organization is seen as reflecting inherent inequalities, centralization is popular, subordinates expect to be told what to do and the ideal boss is a benevolent autocrat.

There are many instances where one could describe difficulty in effective communication while experiencing the high levels of stress in a military deployed environment. The first instance that comes to mind is one in which communications was limited, ineffective and had been reduced to brief forum style bursts of text over a secure network. This communication was difficulty to use, however, necessary due to the danger that surrounded the mission and the vast amount of coordination needed to accomplish it. This lead to three separate barriers in effective communication which later would be remedied.

Communication is the foundation for sharing information between people to ensure that everything is understood and the correct action can be taken in a timely manner. Good communication is essential to complete the mission at hand. Without good communication to your chain of command it makes it impossible for your leaders to communicate to their superiors about problems or issues that you or others may be having. The (National Joint Committee for the Communicative Needs of Persons with Severe Disabilities, 1992, p. 2) defines communication as "Any act by which one person gives to or receives from another person, information about that person's needs, desires, perceptions,

Organization is based on several levels with each different authority. Information flows gradually from the bottom to the top level, as well as tiered command line from top to bottom. Hierarchical system as it was made into a rigid bureaucracy and made the decision-making process becomes fragmented because of the flow of information and commands only run vertically. For example, the organizational structure of the Ministry of Internal Transport of Sri Langka at least has seven levels of bureaucracy, from bottom to higher levels start from additional deputy director, deputy director, director, additional secretary, secretary, deputy minister, and minister. Such hierarchy is likely to cause substantial distortion, in terms of information delivery from the bottom to the top and in terms of translating messages or orders from

Over the years, the relationships between army leadership and a business management have been throughout to be compatible in the organization framework. Yet, it is not always that these two style of command control is not similar in some aspect, but an army leader with an organization district manager are two different leaders. In other words, leadership and management might have subordinates under them, but they will have different meaning. In this paper, my purpose is to do an assessment of leadership and management, as well as demonstrate the similarities and differences in the application it is used. To begin the similarly of leadership and management is important to know the definition of the two. There are many principles of leadership and management, but three of the most important principles are the trait method, the skills method, and the situation awareness method principles. This paper will compare these methods, from the basic, and to what is required to fully understand them and know the contrasting of each method. Looking at the three method, the two that could be comparable are the traits and skills method. However, they are different and some aspect that can be significant.
