Описание: This 1st Edition of Petty Officer's Guide is written and edited by Petty Officers for Petty Officers. It is designed to ensure Navy Petty Officers are ready "to fight and win wars at sea, on land, and in cyberspace" by exposing junior Petty Officers to innovative and modern leadership methodologies. It closes the loop in the United States Naval Institute's Professional Reading series and increases the amount of modern naval literature on the U.S. Navy Petty Officer. It was written to compliment the U.S. Navy Bluejacket's Manual, Chief Petty Officer's Guide, and Division Officer's Guide. Serving as the "premiere leadership guide" to junior Navy Petty Officers, it enhances development processes and tools such as the Navy Leader Development Framework, Education for Sea Power, Sailor 360, and Navy Petty Officer Selectee Leadership courses.
Furthermore, it reinforces modern lines of effort identified in the Chief of Naval Operations' Design for Maritime Superiority and promotes the development of innovative leaders and strategic thinkers. It has also been written to expand the target audience that falls outside the junior Navy Petty Officer corps, primarily, serving as Work Center Supervisors, Assistant Leading Petty Officers, and Leading Petty Officers, but officers, civilian managers, foreign naval officers and enlisted personnel, and sister-service enlisted personnel are also key audience targets. This guide provides unique insights into the values, beliefs, attitudes, and skills which enable the success of naval leaders, how Petty Officers can use power bases, influence tactics, and managerial skills to achieve objectives, and how to influence their peers in support of organizational objectives to achieve the mission accomplishment. Like The Bluejacket's Manual, this guide should be an essential part of an American Sailor's sea bag.

Описание: Dwight D. Eisenhower once quipped, 'You will not find it difficult to prove that battles, campaigns, and even wars have been won or lost primarily because of logistics'. Military acquisition and procurement - that is, how a nation manages investments, technologies, programs, and support - is critical to wartime success or failure. When unexpected battlefield problems arise, how do the government, the military, and industry work together to ensure effective solutions?During the American counterinsurgent campaign in Iraq, the improvised explosive device emerged as a disruptive and devastating threat. As Humvees, and their occupants, were ripped apart by IEDs, it was clear that new solutions had to be found. These solutions already existed but had not been procured, highlighting the need for more effective marketing to the military by industry. The ultimate successful response - the mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicle, or MRAP - required years of entrepreneurial marketing by the defense industry.In Securing theMRAP, James Hasik explores how these vehicles, which the American military mostly rejected despite the great need for them, eventually came to be adopted as the Pentagon's top procurement priority. Hasik traces the story of the MRAP from the early 1970s to the future of mine-resistant vehicles on the battlefields of tomorrow.An important contribution to the seemingly disparate fields of marketing and defence policy, Securing the MRAP is an eye-opening revelation to defence industrialists, military officers, and government officials who want to understand how to avoid another IED-Humvee debacle.

Описание:
In a dramatic unveiling of the little-known world of contracted military logistics, Adam Moore examines the lives of the global army of laborers who support US overseas wars. Empire's Labor brings us the experience of the hundreds of thousands of men and women who perform jobs such as truck drivers and administrative assistants at bases located in warzones in the Middle East and Africa. He highlights the changes the US military has undergone since the Vietnam War, when the ratio of contractors to uniformed personnel was roughly 1:6. In Afghanistan it has been as high as 4:1. This growth in logistics contracting represents a fundamental change in how the US fights wars, with the military now dependent on a huge pool of contractors recruited from around the world. It also, Moore demonstrates, has social, economic, and political implications that extend well beyond the battlefields.
Focusing on workers from the Philippines and Bosnia, two major sources of "third country national" (TCN) military labor, Moore explains the rise of large-scale logistics outsourcing since the end of the Cold War; describes the networks, infrastructures, and practices that span the spaces through which people, information, and goods circulate; and reveals the experiences of foreign workers, from the hidden dynamics of labor activism on bases, to the economic and social impacts these jobs have on their families and the communities they hail from. Through his extensive fieldwork and interviews, Moore gives voice to the agency and aspirations of the many thousands of foreigners who labor for the US military.

Описание: The U.S. military, as the core constituent of the Department of Defense, collectively represents the largest and most complex organization on earth. As such, the U.S. military implemented the largest formal OD programs in the world. These programs, from inception to present day, utilized diverse and evolving OD intervention typologies to garner congruence with the environment. The research for this book, accomplished using an inductive, grounded theory approach, examined the initiatives that fostered the use of OD intervention typologies. The findings revealed three major epochs of OD interventions that span a 50-year timeline. The epochs include: (1) Traditional OD; (2) Total Quality Management (TQM); and (3) Continuous Process Improvement (CPI). The epoch of Traditional OD represents the use of human process interventions while TQM and CPI represent the use of technostructural interventions. In the end, the relationship between organization design and culture, and the selection of OD intervention typologies, were best explained using variables that explicate diverse environmental occurrences that influenced senior military leaders' perceived need for specific OD interventions. These perceived needs were predicated on the requirement to exploit vital resources in an effort to bolster warfighting operational readiness in support of the American citizenry.
