FALL 2021 can count on their followers` competences because they are willing to use them for the good of the mission or organization .
Summary and Conclusion
According to the generally accepted understanding , leadership always takes the form of a LEADERSHIP RELATIONSHIP . Leadership is therefore a relational concept , the quality of which depends on the relationship between the leader and those being led . This relationship can be based on a “ trust culture ” or a “ control culture ”, which in turn determines the leadership philosophy , as well as the outcomes . Mission Command only works within a “ trust culture ”.
When things go not as planned , leaders may go inwards and take the command and control position . But , maybe it would be more successful to searching for the best solution together with others , instead of executing power over others granted by the hierarchy position .
As armies tend to be hierarchical and conservative in education and mindset , it must be emphasized that overall it is not about a valuation of whether leadership with a Mission Command or Command and Control leadership style is better or worse , but rather than that they often behave in a complementary way and should therefore be applied or combined depending on the context . In any case , leadership with Mission Command must be established when there is time , not when there is need , and maybe the momentum is now . LC
