What is one part of advice without consequence you would tell future military leaders both NCO’s and Officers?

Document EVERYTHING. If it's not in writing, it never happened. Good, bad or indifferent. On more than one occasion I've saved my bacon because I held onto an email. "I never told you to do that".... Well here's an email you sent me 6 weeks ago directing me to do exactly that....

You have two ears and one mouth, listen twice as much as you talk.

Become the SME in your craft. Officers work through your NCOs, NCOs keep your Officers informed. Meet frequently to go over the daily plan and determine if resources need to be realigned based on some external impacts to the original plan. Remeber the plan changes the second you hit the line of Departure. Trust but verify all that you do. Be fit, lead from the front. Officers learn to call cadence and take the formation once in a while. NCOs remeber that you are a Team, it is good to have your Officers front and center with the Soldiers as often as feasible. Don’t let your Soldiers see you in conflict, you have to have a united front. Confidence in your competence is key to success in training and essential in combat. Don’t just hear your Team, listen to them. Don’t be afraid to accept that they may have a better idea than you, openly acknowledge good ideas, and implement where it makes sense. Care for your Soldiers and the Family’s. Ensure you resource your plan and don’t expect them to improvise. Improvisation should be the accept ion and not the rule. Lead.
