None of this is novel. But to borrow from Orwell, sometimes to see the thing right in front of your nose demands your constant attention.

Good leaders take responsibility and accept accountability for both the excellence and errors committed under their direction and guidance. It is the only way for both leader and organization to learn and improve. Neither the leader nor the team are infallible, and that’s okay.

Back in the days when I was part of this problem, one of my fav SGMs asked me just how many weeks of “How to be different” were in the 18D POI🤣

The other quip is:
If you ask 5 SF guys how to accomplish a mission, you’ll get 5 different answers.
6 if one of them is a medic.
