Military Leadership Philosophy Examples

My Leadership Philosophy is a basic one. Over the last 22 years, I have established a Leadership style that is based the morals, trust, and values of those who I have served with over the years. The military is not easy sometimes. So as Leaders we must understand that influencing our Soldiers to complete the mission by providing motivation, direction, and purpose is very vital. Our leaders do that by showing dignity and respect and building the organization from the bottom up. I realize that the command environment within the organizations is key to the unit’s ability to attain mission accomplishment, it is also paramount for leader development and leader effectiveness.
The Professional Military Ethic like the Army Values needs to be followed

by our Soldiers and Leaders. Loyalty to the nation, the Military, and the unit are critical to the success of the mission. I strive to be an open and straightforward leader. Everyone deserves to hear the truth and know where they stand within the ranks of our organization. I honestly believe it builds confidence, confidence amongst superiors, peers, and subordinates.
Trust builds with candor and truthfulness; trust is also developing through hard training, competent, ethical, moral, the right leadership. I trust everyone that is in my command; once trust is violated, trust can be extremely tough to recover. I will always ensure that my word and performance leave no question about my loyalties’ and trustworthiness. I expect the same from my Soldiers.
I want my NCOs to establish a learning environment, have open and candid communications, focus on building a unit cohesiveness and trust while encouraging mission command to build initiative and showing genuine concern and care for their Soldiers.
