Another great essay on leadership. It sounds like your expereince mirrored mine when I served from 05-11. So many lessons to learn and so few of them were actually learned.
The current lack of attention and engagement on this part 2 is a crime against excellent writing and applied wisdom. I think the insight that garrison and field operations are suited to mutually exclusive approaches based on where they fall with respect to complexity is key. Attributes that make someone great in the field will make them suck in garrison and vice versa if they fail to apply the wisdom you share here. Maybe include a link to this one at the end of your pt 1 to try to get it some of the attention it deserves.
Thanks, Grant! I really appreciate your engagement and I’m honored that you enjoyed this pair of essays. I’ll take your suggestion and link to part 2 in the part 1 essay.
