The military trains and develops us during our careers to become leaders. However, I think there are different types of organizational leadership. At times during my career and growing up in a military household, there seemed to be a difference between military and the private sector.
This is a good reminder for us all to be aware of during our day to day activities.

Open-mindedness doesn't come easy to many. Ignorance is bliss and comfort. Being "selective" about it is an important skill.
Great read. I finished this with quite a few new ideas for my blog.

SGT (Join to see) Thank you for your comments. I agree that being open-minded can be a challenge for some individuals, especially those of us who served. We are accustom to "The Colonel said so...", or "That's the way it has always been done since I got here...", or "This is what the regulation states..." I agree in all that but it comes down to two things: what the regs state and doing the right thing. Sometimes the regs need to be updated and that unfortunately takes time.
Thanks again for your comments. Be Phenomenal!

SSgt (Join to see) - Just reading those three common quotes works my nerves, they reek of complacency so much. Take care and please share more.

SGT (Join to see) You and me both. My skin would crawl when someone would say that.
During my high school days, one of my National Honor Society and Gift and Talented (yes, I was one of those kids..lol) teachers said to me, "Be respectful to authority, but always challenge authorities methods."
Her point was to follow the rules and be mindful of respect at all times just as I would want them to be respectful to in kind. However, I should always be aware and looking to improve the processes. Her example, the wheel. The wheel has evolved in resourcefulness (how it does) but its functionality (what it does) has as remained constant.
Thanks again for a great post.
