How to command in order to lead : a few principles not always appreciated
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
The engagement of our military contingents in Iraq and Afghanistan influences the acceleration of many essential transformations in various areas of armed forces’ operations. It is reflected not only in modernizing the armament and combat techniques. Significant changes are also seen in the philosophy of commanding in which human factor is becoming to be stressed, apart from organizational, procedural and technical factors which support information and decision-making processes. Commanders more and more frequently notice that the efficiency of their performance, although extremely difficult to reach in combat conditions, does not only depend on their personal abilities. In the situation of general higher awareness, level of knowledge and abilities, the skills to gain the subordinates’ trust have more and more influence on the efficiency of commanding. However, reaching such a state is possible when, apart from a formal appointment, the commander will undertake activities ensuring creating atmosphere of cooperation and eliminating organizational barriers. Therefore, the conclusion seems right that the followers of the view are wrong believing that effective command can be reached without subordinates’ engagement but only through enforcing their operations. We should also hope that the considerations presented in the article will contribute to deepening the falling tendency of such a pejorative opinion.
