    General Patton And The Battle Of The Bulge Case Study

    General Patton and the Battle of the Bulge Mission command is an important part of what makes a military leader successful. It is not easy to accomplish but will lead to victory when done well. Mission command can be broken down into six sub-categories consisting of, mutual trust, create shared understanding, provide a clear commander’s intent, exercise disciplined initiative, use mission orders, and accept prudent risk. During the Battle of the Bulge General George S. Patton was in charge of the United States Third Army and demonstrated many of the qualities that make up mission command. His successful use of these tenants of mission command not only led to the multiple successes of the Third Army but also a victory at the Battle of the Bulge.…

    Over the last 1.5 years, the 4th Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT) has undergone significant change. Following a nine month deployment to Afghanistan, the Brigade appears to be overcome by stress, fatigue, leadership, and ethics issues. While many might categorize these as normal post deployment occurrences, they appear to run much deeper. The events of the previous deployment coupled with the death of the Brigade Commander, Brigade Sergeant Major and a Battalion Commander appear to be the critical events that triggered the downward slide of the Brigade.…

    The Operations Process And Troop Leading Procedures

    The relationship between the Operations Process and the Troop Leading Procedures exist in a symbiotic and mutually necessary system. This system allows leaders to plan, prepare for, and react to various missions and situations in a fluid and organized fashion. As situations develop on a global scale, our national leaders continually develop the policy and precedent that drives the Troop Leading Procedures that lower level leadership is responsible for. Once higher level leadership passes down orders through the Operations Process, actions are taken in the field and in support of maneuvers by lower level leaders and their troops. These smaller units, in turn, gather intelligence and detailed knowledge of the environment and pass this information…

    Creon And Haemon Leadership Analysis

    What makes a leader effective? Making broad decisions can be a daunting task, but good leaders know to keep the best interests of their citizens prized above all else. When leaders divert from this vision is when they cause harm both to their reputation and to their people. In Antigone, the king of Thebes, Creon, orders Antigone to death after she disobeys his law. He decreed that the body of Antigone’s brother Polynices would not be buried, in opposition to the gods’ mandate regarding burial.…
