| Abstract: |
The article discusses the potential benefits of implementing a cohort staffing model at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College (CGSC) to enhance the effectiveness of field-grade officers and their organizations. It argues that traditional military structures often struggle with communication, trust, and efficiency, particularly in large organizations, and that cohort staffing can foster strong relationships and networks among officers. By maintaining teams formed during training, the Army could improve shared understanding and operational readiness, ultimately leading to better performance at the tactical and operational levels. The article suggests a pilot program to test this approach, emphasizing the importance of networks in overcoming the challenges faced by large military organizations. [Extracted from the article] |
