The United States Army is one of the most complex, best run
organizations in the world, and central to the Army’s success are
strong leadership and exceptional leadership development. Army
leaders must be able to act decisively and effectively in
challenging situations. But the Army, despite its organizational
structure, does not train leaders in a hierarchical manner.
Dispersed leadership is the key to the success of the Army
leadership model.
Now, for the first time, you can have access to the Army’s
successful leadership philosophy and the principles that are
outlined in Be Know Do the official Army Leadership Manual.
Be Know Do makes this critical information available to
civilian leaders in all sectors–business, government, and
nonprofit–and gives them the guidelines they need to create an
organization where leadership thrives.
