I can agree with much of what you said.
My only difference is:
"constant, continuous, interconnected, and global crises have become the hallmark of our time."

I believe that is true of the entire existence of the human race, from the time we formed tribal states.

I'm not sure how global and interconnected the crises were before we had mass public transportation, but you are 100% correct about us having constant, continuous crises for all of human history. And those crises were often more dire than what we face now (for a whole host of well-documented reasons).

The real difference between historical conflicts and world conflicts today is technology. Human nature hasn't changed. The way by which we deal with international conflict has hugely changed with the changes in weaponry, communications and transportation.

CPT Alex Gallo I like the framework - simple and easy to follow. I don't see a moral component in your summary posted here...is there one? And if so, how would it apply to each profile you describe? I'm not trying to start a your truth-my truth food fight...just I don't believe any leadership approach will work well for long without a moral compass to help guide it.

The Army values set a moral and ethical foundation for military decision making: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage (LDRSHIP). It's a good start, but it has to be practiced, analyzed and then improved upon or maintained throughout the institution. Since our military is civilian led, the DoD needs to have a similar code.
