Developing Adaptive Leaders: The Crucible Experience Of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Leonard Wong Dr.
Developing Adaptive Leaders: The Crucible Experience Of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Leonard Wong Dr.
Monographs, Collaborative Studies, & IRPs
The author examines the Operation IRAQI FREEDOM environment and concludes that the complexity, unpredictability, and ambiguity of postwar Iraq is producing a cohort of innovative, confident, and adaptable junior officers. They are learning to make decisions in chaotic conditions and to be mentally agile in executing counterinsurgency and nation-building operations simultaneously.

The Exigencies Of Global, Integrated Warfare: The Evolving Role Of The Cjcs And His Dedicated Staff, Michael S. Bell Ltc
Monographs, Collaborative Studies, & IRPs
In order to better understand the character and enduring attributes of the position of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and inform future Defense reform initiatives in the post 9/11 era, the author traces the Chairman's evolving role since the inception of the position during World War II through the Goldwater-Nichols reforms of the 1980s. Although Defense reformers often focus on more efficient business and budgeting practices, his narrative compels greater consideration of the value of apolitical military advice, civilian direction of policy, and legislative oversight on the military instrument of power.

Toward An American Way Of War, Antulio J. Echevarria Dr.
Monographs, Collaborative Studies, & IRPs
The author examines the principal characteristics and ideas associated with the American way of war, past and present. He argues that Americans do not have a way of war, but rather a way of battle. LTC Echevarria contends that moving from a way of battle to a way of war will require some fundamental thinking about the roles of the grammar and logic of war, about the nature of U.S. civil-military relations, and about the practical resources necessary to translate military victory into strategic success.
