Abstract:

In an effort to coordinate its leadership training, the Combined Arms Center CAC sought to determine the nature of the specific leadership skills and competencies required at the various grade levels from sergeant through colonel. It was postulated that while there may be a set of generic skills common to leader performance at all levels, they are probably not identical. This interim report describes in detail the job analysis and procedures used to revise, update, clarify, and verify the data for use as the basis for developing Job Performance Dimensions JPDs. The construction of a job profile for each grade level will enable the Army to design a training program which is tailored to the specific role requirements for each grade. Results of this research will form the basis for planning new training programs with a minimum of repetition and a maximum of job-level specificity. The current project is concerned only with common nontechnical leadership tasks and nontechnical leadership JPDs. Job analysis research was conducted for jobs at the more senior levels for commissioned officers.
