Leadership Development in the Military



US Military special forces; Army Rangers, Navy SEALs and other elite fighters are famed for achieving top-level performance when stakes are high. The most important part of their development is that they always train in teams. Some of the best companies have been moving toward team development, but it's been central to the special forces from the beginning. They assume they can achieve goals only as a team and their creeds include a promise of loyalty to the team. For example, the Rangers say, "Never shall I fail my comrades." Devotion to teammates, not a boss, institution, or share price, is the strongest motivator.
