Impact Of War Command In The Army

Some of the things we define have positive definitions because of that unique aspect they portray to us. In this case, war command being a function that has to be exercised time to time more or less continuously is one of the things I can give this positive definition. This is because the few functions related to it can be carried out by the army are beneficial since they are related to respect, existence and also operations.

Control can arise and vary with either size, complexity or also the differentiation of an army. At the comparison of a hundred-man army and a one-man army, the one-man army does not require authority like that of the hundred-man army. An army that would be working under a solid entity of men would be easier to control. A force can be subdivided into several units despite its size. However, coordination of the subunits would be difficult.

With the sophistication of the forces, it is possible to account for the attention paid to it, the role of chain of control increases. First, this role should coordinate and arrange everything the army needs so as to exist such as the food supply, system justice and also the sanitary services etc. Second, it enables carrying out of responsibilities and also strategize on the maximum amount of death and damage on the enemy within a remarkably short period of time and ensure no or minimum loss to itself.

Authority has responsibilities, and they can be subdivided into two parts. They can be defined as the functional related and the output related responsibilities. Some of the qualities of an ideal control is the ability to gather information accurately, selectively, fast and comprehensively. To determine the true from false, the relevant from the irrelevant and material from immaterial, reliable means should be developed. All displays should be detailed, clear and comprehensive.

Outcomes of a given situation determine a lot and also enables predictions of the progress to be expected. Some of the benefits of this role is that some skills like coordination, peace and harmony among people, management skills and also respect can be established.

Though it may be of benefit to the army and the society, there is the other side of the coin.Authority can be the source of enmity between several commanders even in the same force which can cause a lot of dispute and damage. It is to the best interest of every person to know that it is not always that a commander is right. Some do not know how to manage anger or be lenient to the troop members who sometimes defy what they wanted done. Even leaders can be the cause of conflicts.

Systems of command can be differentiated and determined into other ways, which enables the problems approachable. Tactics used to deal with qualities like complexity increase, attention given to the responsibilities, emphasis of the command process, and also the strength and weaknesses determine the nature of command.

The way commanders manage an army determines whether it is going to have a positive outcome or not. War command is the motivation for an army that is organized, nonetheless, it can potentially be the down fall of an army. Management is a crucial aspect and the commanders should value it. War can bring out good in people, and it can also bring unfavorable outcomes.
