21st-Century Challenges of Command

Více o knize

Examining the complexities of command in the 21st century, the work focuses on the experiences of Special Operations Forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. It highlights the difficult choices faced by commanders amid time constraints and incomplete information, introducing the concept of "objectiveless warfare." The author argues that the absence of clear objectives hinders effective leadership, emphasizing the importance of a singular hierarchy for achieving coherent strategies, rather than merely advocating for a better-defined strategy itself.
