]]> Comment on Listen, Learn…Then Lead by Dale Wilson - Author of Command Performance http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/2012/01/06/listen-learn-then-lead/#comment-4791 Mon, 11 Feb 2013 13:30:06 +0000 http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/?p=428#comment-4791 I agree, David. Too many people have a ‘Hollywood’ perception of the military. I’ve written about that on this blog; search ‘Hollywood’ in the search bar. And, the overall premise of my blog is to discuss the synergies between military and civilian leadership, particularly the misconceptions. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and I hope you come back to read some more.

I’m convinced that the business world could learn from military leadership (having been involved in both myself) and that there is a large misconception about the nature of military leadership. This talk is a perfect example.

]]> Comment on Toxic Leadership by Dale Wilson - Author of Command Performance http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/2012/02/09/toxic-leadership/#comment-4756 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 21:26:03 +0000 http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/?p=857#comment-4756 More than surprising me, it disappoints me that this is a trend that exists in our military, and one that seems to be getting worse, not better. Unfortunately, with rank comes affects on one’s ego and percieved power over others. Toxic leadership is an issue that I think will always be a problem. Like the other issues you’ve mentioned, toxic leadership is something that we will have to take seriously because of its adverse affect on the force and its people.

Thank you, John, for visiting my blog and commenting here. I sincerely hope that you had a chance to surf around my blog for other interesting content, and that you find the time to visit the blog again very soon.

]]> Comment on Toxic Leadership by John Moore http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/2012/02/09/toxic-leadership/#comment-4755 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 18:39:25 +0000 http://commandperformanceleadership.wordpress.com/?p=857#comment-4755 Dale, believing I was in a “toxic” environment, I googled “toxic leadership.” To my amazement, when I typed “leadership” the drop down revealed “toxic leadership in the United States Army” as the third most popular search. It is disturbing to see what a serious problem we have, but comforting to know that there are lots of studies and articles on this. On the Army side, we act as if our number one problems are sexual harrassment and suicide. So we bombard our Soldiers with briefings, classes and insipid AFN spots. Maybe we are under emphasizing the negative effect of narcissistic leadership, without which there would be less sexual harrassment and suicide. Don’t be too discouraged if people are not hitting your links. There is a lot of material out there and many, like me, are just starting to explore the area. Thanks for the blog.
