Every organization needs a leader who can manage the increasingly competitive environment within which businesses function today. Past research demonstrates that there are several components of military training that can be vital in the corporate domain. It also demonstrates that nearly 9 per cent of the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 companies are headed by ex-military officers. One can infer from past research that military leaders are more ambitious, disciplined, goal-oriented, and committed compared to business leaders. Thus, there are lots of lessons on motivation, team building, goal orientation, and organizational culture that managers can learn from military. This book attempts to articulate how one can leverage time-tested military practices to create business advantage. Furthermore, the book explores how military leadership ties individual goal with the organizational goal, resulting in highly motivated and committed work, which, in turn, augments organizational efficiency and enhances employee productivity.
