[TEDxBerlin, 2\/2024, Martin Gutmann]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Historian Martin Gutmann challenges our admiration for dramatic crisis leadership by exploring the concept of action fallacy. Using the example of the famed but disaster-prone explorer Ernest Shackleton, Gutmann argues that true leadership lies in preventing crises before they occur, rather than managing them with bold actions. This thought-provoking TED talk offers a fresh perspective on what makes a leader truly effective\u2014a perspective that is equally appliable to the realm of military leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In \u00abZombie Leadership\u00bb, Haslam, Alvesson, and Reicher dissect these \u00abzombie\u00bb ideas, revealing how they flatter the powerful while stifling true progress. The paper identifies eight core axioms of zombie leadership, challenging the narrative which glorifies leaders at the expense of followers and collective success. This provocative review calls for a re-evaluation of leadership paradigms to finally put these dead ideas to rest and embrace more evidence-based approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S1048984323000966#s0025<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n [Team Armee Live, 21.06.2024, Matthias M\u00fcller, Hugo Roux]<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen der Milit\u00e4rakademie der Schweizer Armee: Brigadier Hugo Roux spricht \u00fcber seine Aufgaben als Kommandant der Bildungsst\u00e4tte f\u00fcr zuk\u00fcnftige Berufsoffiziere.

Hester, Dennis Doyle, Ronan A. Sefton]<\/p>\n\n\n\n In modern warfare, tactics and technology are inseparable. The authors highlight the concept of \u00abtechcraft\u00bb \u2013 the field-expedient use of technology in war \u2013 as crucial for soldiers’ success on the battlefield. Ukraine’s defense, using creative combinations of tactics and technology, demonstrates the importance of rapidly integrating technological innovations. To foster these skills in the U.S. Army, leaders must invite, enable, lead, and share insights with their soldiers, creating a culture of continuous innovation and adaptation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/warontherocks.com\/2024\/05\/techcraft-on-display-in-ukraine\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n [NATO Defense College, 3\/2024, LTC Brian R. Miletich]<\/p>\n\n\n\n LTC Brian R. Miletich from the U.S. Army War College explores the profound impact of drone proliferation on modern warfare. The paper argues that while drones significantly enhance combat capabilities, they do not fundamentally alter the nature of war. Instead, they represent an evolutionary rather than revolutionary change. Miletich emphasizes the need for NATO to integrate these technological advancements into strategic defense planning, highlighting the importance of adaptive strategies, network resilience, and comprehensive modernization to maintain a tactical edge in a rapidly evolving battlespace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link: https:\/\/www.ndc.nato.int\/news\/news.php?icode=1934<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Le \u00ab Update Conduite \u00bb est une rubrique r\u00e9currente de la newsletter Leader’s Digest<\/a>.
