« Replacing leadership with...warriorship? | Main | A New Way of Leadership »

My brain is stuck.

Wow, what an interesting post!

I am ex-military and I have an MBA - thus I suppose I have been schooled in both "military leadership' and 'civilian leadership'. The modern western militaries tend to value a business based MBA as much as they do qualifications from their own staff / war colleges. However you seem to be suggesting that the art of the warrior is what is missing from civilian leadership in certain contexts.

So, I am totally on board with this concept of warriorship being about bravery not militarism and the use of force. What I personally often find missing from our leaders (both business and political) is that personal bravery element that would allow them to take risks. I also think that business and society as a whole has moved away from "learning from our mistakes" to a bland, middle of the road, risk averse position of "lets not make any mistakes".

Warriorship should teach that mistakes are in fact inevitable, but that you must learn from them, strive not to repeat them and ensure that next time you have better intelligence (information), better plans etc I have often been heard to exclaim that I prefer senior management who will make a decision, any decision, even the wrong one, because that would be better than doing nothing.

Anyway, I am rambling now, but as I said, I found this very interesting, so thank you !

Thanks Jed, i agree with your comments about mistake making...one of the things that I liked about my military experience was that we were very serious about learning from mistakes.
