The University of AkronArmy ROTCThe 42nd Ohio Volunteer BattalionSpring Semester, 2014The Basis of Leadership1. All Army team members, Soldiers and civilians, must have a basis ofunderstanding for what leadership is and does – which is deeply-rooted invalues, the Warrior Ethos, and professional competence.2. National and Army values influence the leader’s character andprofessional development, instilling a desire to acquire the essentialknowledge to lead. Leaders apply this knowledge within a spectrum ofestablished competencies to achieve successful mission accomplishment.3. The roles and functions of Army leaders apply to the three interconnectedlevels of leadership: direct, organizational, and strategic. Within theselevels of leadership, cohesive teams can achieve collective excellencewhen leadership levels interact effectively.

The University of AkronArmy ROTCThe 42nd Ohio Volunteer BattalionSpring Semester, 2014The Be, Know, DoLeadership PhilosophyThe Army uses the shorthand expression of BE-KNOW-DO toconcentrate on key factors of leadership. What leaders DO emerges fromwho they are (BE) and what they KNOW. Leaders are prepared throughouttheir lifetimes with respect to BE-KNOW-DO so they will be able to act at amoment’s notice and provide leadership for whatever challenge they mayface.ADP 6-22 describes the character attributes and core competencies requiredof contemporary leaders. Character is based on the attributes central to a leader’s make-up. Competence comes from how character combines with knowledge,skills, and behaviors to result in leadership.

The University of AkronArmy ROTCThe 42nd Ohio Volunteer BattalionSpring Semester, 2014The Be, Know, DoLeadership PhilosophyBE: Who You Are --- A Leader of Character and a Leader of Presence.Character defines who you are as a leader. It is how you demonstrate your values. Who youare is not something you can turn on and off. It is 24 hours per day and 7 days a week onand off duty, regardless of who might be watching.KNOW: Skills You Have Mastered --- A Leader With IntellectualCapacity.Competence in your field --- This is accomplished by gaining knowledge and masteringappropriate skills. This takes self-motivation. You have to WANT to learn.DO: How You Carry out Your Decisions --- Leads, Develops, andAchieves.A Leader’s actions are observable and will be how he/she is ultimately evaluated and willdetermine his/her effectiveness as a leader. Leadership takes place in action. What youDO is every bit as important as the BE and KNOW aspects of the Army LeadershipPhilosophy.
