Description
Summary:This report provides the results of a needs assessment and analysis of adaptability education at the Command General Staff College (CGSC), Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. It includes recommendations for modifications to the CGSC Special Operations Forces curriculum that are supported by a need to further develop adaptive leaders at the operational and strategic levels. The results, conclusions, and recommendations were drawn from information collected from recent CGSC Intermediate Level Education (ILE) graduates, current ILE students, instructors, course developers, and from the research literature on dimensions of adaptive performance. A set of instructional modules was developed from this assessment to enhance the ILE Special Operations Forces course content specific to developing, training, and promoting adaptability as a viable and necessary construct.
