The 3 Cs of Leadership

摘要

Our Soldiers, their Families, and our leaders deserve our competence, confidence, and compassion. It is these ideals which inspire that private, that NCO, or that lieutenant to get up day after day in combat and say, "Let's go!" When Family members see those qualities in good leaders, they will have faith that their loved ones are in good hands and confidence that they will return home safely. Leadership is the number one business of all Army officers, next to management of resources and personnel, and leaders should strive to be impact players or combat multipliers wherever the assignment is to do their country's bidding. Leaders at all levels should continue to "fill their lamps with oil" to further develop leadership and critical thinking skills. No matter where our boots take us, we owe it to our subordinates to be competent, confident, and compassionate!
