Delegate responsibility

Wherever possible, delegate tasks to subordinate elements. Trust people to do the task they are assigned, and give them the needed freedom to do so without interfering.

In other words, tell people what you want, not how to do it.

Group dynamics

  • Moderate and arbitrate the discourse between subordinate elements. In stressful environments, tensions can occasionally rise high, so it is important to nip conflict or negative sentiment in the bud before it infects the entire team.
  • Ensure everyone feels like a valued and included part of the team
  • Prevent the team from sliding into an overly casual atmosphere, where nobody is taking anything serious anymore. There is a time for laughter, and a time for focus.

Share and teach knowledge

  • Use operational situations as teaching opportunities when time permits.
  • Explain the reasoning behind decisions and actions.
  • Guide individuals to arrive at conclusions rather than simply issuing correction.
  • Issue immediate corrective commands when required by tempo or risk.
  • Conduct follow-up explanation during AAR if correction was time-critical.
  • Maintain professional tone; avoid belittling or ego-driven instruction.
