HOW FIELD GRADE OFFICERS LEAD IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIZATIONS AND LEADERS TO ACHIEVE RESULTS
As a field grade officer in the U.S. Army, there will always be challenges and opportunities to lead organizations and leaders in order to sustain positive results. Per the ADRP 6-22, Army Leadership is the process of influencing people by providing purpose, direction, and motivation to accomplish the mission and improve the organization (ADP 6-22). As the incoming Brigade Commander of the 4th ABCT, there are significant challenges within the brigade that need to be addressed and resolved. In order to correct the deficiencies of the Brigade, as the incoming Commander, the Leadership Requirement Model is a great reference as to what leaders need …show more content…

The 4th ABCT’s high operational tempo and multiple deployments has resulted in several issues ranging from poor moral, lack of loyalty to the brigade and leadership, equipment shortages, and a lack of family readiness support. There are several references and guidelines provided to address these problems. When developing organizations, the framework for improving organizations while operating will be implemented. Some areas to concentrate on are; leading change, leader development, culture and climate, ethical alignment, vision, and extending influence When a leader knows an organization needs change, resistance to that change should be expected. This brigade requires several changes and the resistance will be the overall primary challenge. In order to implement the significant amount of changes required within the 4th ABCT, the John P. Kotter model will be utilized and provide great systematic approach. This model outlines an eight-stage change …show more content…

A brigade is an extremely large team and the leadership must collate to address issues and implement change. One example of why a guiding coalition is required is the issue of non-deployable soldiers in the brigade. The brigade’s historical unit status reports indicate only deployed at 92 deployment strength, although the assigned strength was 105 percent. During the 4th ABCT’s last deployment, 100 soldiers were redeployed for non-combat-related medical problems. A significant number of non-deployable soldiers remain on unit roles. Additionally, since returning, the number of medical non-deployable soldiers has slightly increased. Obviously, this issue needs to be addressed. But, all battalions throughout the brigade must coordinate and address it as a coalition. All battalions need to have a similar plan of action and develop a guiding coalition of leaders to take action and resolve the non-deployable soldier situation. If the guiding coalition is not uniform throughout the battalions, there will be animosity between the battalions. This will directly impact the brigade as a whole, and the change that is required will fail. A guiding coalition is required when addressing other issues as well, such as the equipment shortages, staffing shortages, and family readiness issues. The battalions need to have guidance from the brigade in

The 4th Armored Brigade Combat Team Without knowledgeable and qualified leaders at every level of civilian or military organization people will work in an unhealthy environment and their output and performance will suffer. Management or leadership lacking in leadership qualities will effect organizational culture and climate in a negative way, to the point that it will make the unit organization incapable of accomplishing the assigned mission. After a series of tragic events that occurred within the 4th ABCT during their last deployment in Afghanistan, I have no doubt in my mind that commanding them is going to be challenging. During the last few weeks, I had the opportunity to examine the historical unit records, CALL and CAL assessments, and conversations and observations with leaders throughout the Brigade and Division, which gave me some helpful information. This information has helped me in preparing the plan on how to meet with the upcoming challenge.

Leaders at all levels of the Army are faced with difficult decisions every day, decisions that can affect the lives of everyone around them. The thought processes used by individual leaders to make decisions can be as far reaching as their imagination; however, it is every leader’s responsibility to make these decisions using the tenants of mission command. Mission command is not an easy skill to master, however great leaders understand it and the proper use of it when planning a mission. Mission command is broken down into six major principles: Build cohesive teams through trust, create a shared understanding, provide a clear commanders’ intent, exercise-disciplined initiative, use mission orders and accept prudent risk .

Returning to the 4th Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) to assume command as the brigade commander brings me much joy to be reunited with great Non-Commission Officers and Officers that I have previously served with. Unfortunately, this brigade is no longer the brigade I remember when I commanded a battalion within the 4th ABCT not so long ago. In the last 30 days, I have had the opportunity to observe the ABCT and review a multitude of historical documents to assess the state of the brigade. During my observation, I believe the critical leadership problem in the 4th ABCT’s is the lack of vision for the brigade. Therefore, this critical problem has led to other challenging issues within the brigade.

Shortly after 11 September 2001, Brigadier General James Mattis successfully commanded a Marine unit called Task Force 58 which conducted operations throughout southern Afghanistan. The success of his command is correlated to the six principals of mission command listed in Army Doctrine Reference Publication (ADRP) 6-0.

This paper will explain how General Mattis applied these four principals during his command of Task Force 58. However, first, a summary of events leading up to the formation of Task Force 58 and its significant

I am writing this to explain the circumstances that resulted in the recent moves, and the frequency of those moves, of me and my family. Furthermore, I will demonstrate that those moves are abnormal to the Army and should not be used as a basis for determining future moves. In 2004, the Army instituted the Force Stabilization Initiative in order to increase readiness and stability for the fighting force, and predictability for their families. This initiative outlined stability for first term Soldiers at approximately six years and second or third term Soldiers at approximately three years.
