Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Several factors have combined to force the Army to think about the way it develops and nurtures its leaders. Yet, Vandergriff maintains, mere modifications to today's paradigm may not be enough. Today's Army has to do more than post rhetoric about "adaptability" on briefing slides and in literature. One cannot divorce the way the Army accesses, promotes, and selects its leaders from its leadership-development model. The Army cannot expect to maintain leaders who grasp and practice adaptability if these officers encounter an organization that is neither adaptive nor innovative. Instead, Army culture must become adaptive, and the personnel system must evolve into one that nurtures adaptability in its policies, practices, and beliefs."--Résumé de l'éditeur.

This book was released on 2008-10-30 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Industrial Age model continues to shape the way the Army approaches its recruiting, personnel management, training, and education. This outdated personnel management paradigm—designed for an earlier era—has been so intimately tied to the maintenance of Army culture that a self-perpetuating cycle has formed, diminishing the Army's attempts to develop adaptive leaders and institutions. This cycle can be broken only if the Army accepts rapid evolutionary change as the norm of the new era. Recruiting the right people, then having them step into an antiquated organization, means that many of them will not stay as they find their ability to contribute and develop limited by a centralized, hierarchical organization. Recruiting and retention data bear this out. Several factors have combined to force the Army to think about the way it develops and nurtures its leaders. Yet, Vandergriff maintains, mere modifications to today's paradigm may not be enough. Today's Army has to do more than post rhetoric about adaptability on briefing slides and in literature. One cannot divorce the way the Army accesses, promotes, and selects its leaders from its leadership-development model. The Army cannot expect to maintain leaders who grasp and practice adaptability if these officers encounter an organization that is neither adaptive nor innovative. Instead, Army culture must become adaptive, and the personnel system must evolve into one that nurtures adaptability in its policies, practices, and beliefs. Only a detailed, comprehensive plan where nothing is sacred will pave the way to cultural evolution.

Book excerpt: It is sometimes easy to overlook that manning-the-force is an integral part of the United States' National Security plan. Increasing worldwide demands for US military presence have put pressure on all of the military Services (Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines) Active, Reserve, and National Guard components to maintain their respective Congressionally mandated personnel strengths. Recruiting success for all of the Services is largely dependent on both economic conditions and amount of available resources with success occurring when economic conditions are deteriorating and/or the services recruiting means are in a satisfactory state. Simplistically speaking, when unemployment is high and the recruiting elements have an adequate level of resources-the ends, ways, and means-all of the Services usually meet annual recruiting objectives and endstrengths. If the Army's objective is to maintain a volunteer force in accordance with the national All-Volunteer Force (AVF) policy, the ends can be defined as successfully meeting annual recruiting objectives for both the enlisted soldiers and officers. Given the ends, the national strategic concepts, i.e., the ways, are the approaches and concepts used by the Department of Army (DA) to successfully recruit the annual AVF goals. The means, or the national resources, to achieve the ends are the funding and infrastructure provided to the Army for AVF recruiting. After reviewing the future force and potential knowledge, skills, and attributes of the 21st century soldier, this paper examines the AVF policy and past calls for reinstating the draft before outlining four means that support future AVF recruiting. The means discussed include providing additional recruiting resources (monetary and manpower), using contractors, increasing annual percentage of 2-year term-of-service contracts, and doing more with the resources currently in place.

Book excerpt: The world is changing and the Army is responding to these changes and positioning itself for the challenges of the future strategic environment. The Future Force will be very different from the Army of today. New equipment technologies and tactics will require soldiers with different skill sets than those of today's soldiers. New soldiers in the Future Force will be recruited from the generation of Americans referred to as the Millennials those born in 1982 and later. How will the aptitudes and attributes of the Millennial generation mesh with the human resource requirements of the Future Force? Is there a delta between these aptitudes and attributes of the Millennials and the human resource requirements of the Future Force? If so how can the Army close that gap? The Army's success in recruiting and integrating the Millennial generation into the Army of the future will ultimately determine the success of transformation and the success of the Army in the emerging strategic environment. Who are these Millennials and will they measure up? The future of our Army depends upon it.

This book was released on 2015-12-18 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During 1989, the world witnessed the decline of the "threat" from the USSR and the apparent unraveling of the Warsaw Pact. The American public and Congress used these events to begin questioning the need for the current Department of Defense structure. The size of the Defense budget and the size of the national debt makes these actions predictable. As Defense cuts are being proposed and evaluated, it is the responsibility of those in Defense to ensure an eye is kept on future national security interests. The DOD and the services must remain viable forces during this period of change and restructure. This book examines the challenge of meeting the manpower requirements of a reducing Army; how to provide the flexibility for future expansion; the capability of current systems of recruiting and the draft to meet these needs; the potentials of the proposed national service corps, and concludes with recommendations.

Book excerpt: "The U.S. Army's senior leadership has repeatedly emphasized the need to recruit and retain 'high quality, physically fit, mentally tough Soldiers who can deploy, fight and win decisively on any future battlefield.' To do so, the Army needs to preserve its competitive edge over the nation's adversaries by modernizing personnel policies with recruiting and retention programs that maintain readiness and develop future leaders. After more than 17 years of low-intensity operations in the Middle East, the Department of Defense (DoD) is focusing on optimizing for high-end conflict with near-peer competitors. The Army has established a new major subordinate command -- Futures Command -- to streamline the development and acquisition of new capabilities. That said, at its core, the Army is a people-centric organization whose strength is not measured in platforms like tanks, ships and aircraft, but in flexible Soldiers who can adapt to changing circumstances. The Soldier-centric U.S. Army nees to modernize is personnel recruitment policies to complement its technological modernization efforts" -- Publisher's web site.

Download or read book Manning the Army in Peace and War written by Joseph W. Trez and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the key manning decision that faced the senior Army leadership during the 1980s and which will continue into the 1990s. It analyzes the concept of the Individual Replacement System (IRS) versus the Unit Manning System (UMS) as competing personnel management systems in the way we man the force in both peace and war. The paper provides a historical background of our manning system. Next, the author provides his personal perspectives on the issues from his experiences in units as a command and as a personnel staff officer under both systems as well as a Unit Manning System project officer under both systems as well as a Unit Manning System project officer in the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel (ODCSPER) at Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA). The paper also provides the reflections and manning philosophies of many of our senior Army leaders. Finally, the paper concludes with recommendations for the senior Army leadership on ways to man our future force in both peace and war.

Download or read book Ethical Portraits written by Hatty Nestor and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prisons systematically dehumanise the imprisoned. Visualised through mugshots and surveillance recordings, the incarcerated lose control of their own image and identity. The criminal justice system in the United States does not only carry out so-called justice in ways that compound inequality, it also minimises the possibility for empathetic encounters with those who are most marginalised. It is therefore urgent to understand how prisoners are portrayed by the carceral state and how this might be countered or recuperated. How can understanding the visual representation of prisoners help us confront the invisible forms of power in the American prison system? Ethical Portraits investigates the representation of the incarcerated in the United States criminal justice system, and the state’s failure to represent those incarcerated humanely. Through wide-ranging interviews and creative nonfiction, Hatty Nestor deconstructs the different roles of prison portraiture, such as in courtroom sketches, DNA profiling, and the incarceration of Chelsea Manning.

Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the U.S. Army process for recruiting and training soldiers to determine if Army Transformation is properly geared toward manning the Objective Force. The study begins by analyzing the nature of the battlefield of 2020 in order to determine what skills and traits will be required of the Objective Force soldier. The study then goes on to review the Army process for selecting and recruiting soldiers, as well as any planned changes in those processes. Finally, the study reviews lessons learned from pertinent Army training and experiments, to include the Digital Division, the Army Experiment Program, and the Interim Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) to determine if there are any relevant lessons for training future soldiers. This study then concludes that the Army's manpower needs in the future will be for a far more qualitatively superior soldier than the Army of today: a soldier that is older, more educated, more computer literate and more capable of operating independently on the future battlefield; that Army recruiting and training systems are postured to deliver that soldier in 2020; that in lieu of universal service, the Army will need to be more competitive in recruiting in order to recruit soldiers with the requisite skills of the Objective Force.

Download or read book A Concept of a Future Force written by Charles W. Taylor and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a likely force design of a 1990's modernized US Army as a point of departure, a concept for a future force for the early years of the 21st century is described by this futures report. Consideration, based on the author's view of trends and ideas found in futurist literature, is given to planning, manning, training, equipping, fighting, and managing the future Army portrayed. The author's conceptual future Army is few in numbers of personnel and is technologically superior when compared to traditional 20th century forces. It is composed of attrition, reactionary, and contingency fighting elements. Its principal battle characteristics will be deep, decisive, piranha-like strikes against enemy forces. The author envisions that his future force will apply a rapid succession of actions consisting of scan, swarm, strike, and scatter. During the transition years from a modernized 1990's force to the 21st century fighting force, the author foresees a Reserve Component which will play an important role assisting in countering threats to US national security.
