The Framework of Military Leadership, 2nd Edition

The contemporary security environment is characterized by an increase in complexity, shifting dynamics and a rising number of wars being carried out in a vague and flexible warfare environment. Naturally, this requires military leaders to adapt more rapidly to the challenges than ever before; today, army commanders have to behave more like diplomats, intellectuals, academics, and technicians in this respect.

This book provides an eclectic and analytic conceptional study regarding military leadership and its components and dynamics. This work on the phenomenon of military leadership is a valuable original reference book for academics, scientists, students, and professional members of the armed forces, as well as for anyone else interested in personal development issues. This second edition includes two new chapters (‘On The Basic Leadership Requirements That Today’s Leaders Are Expected To Possess’ and ‘From Authoritarian To Authentic Military Leadership’), and updated versions of many chapters from the first edition.
