Case Study: Candidate Gordon
Candidate Gordon briefed all of the paragraphs of his operation order that included some accurate information from what was provided to him. SNC was able to include all of the information during the Orientation; however, SNC wasn’t capable of accurately stating the Friendly Situation that stated their platoon was one mile to the south. SNC had difficulty staying organized as he referred to his notes and his operation order skeleton, resulting in SNC using filler words as he organized his thoughts. During the point of friction, SNC was unable to properly communicate to his subordinate leaders as he only gave instructions to the third fire team leader to move forward and begin crossing the bridge. As the squad made their transition across,

    Snc's Five Paragraph Order

    SNC conducted a five paragraph order that was incomplete. SNC addressed all paragraphs of the five paragraph order with the exception of the Command and Signal paragraph. A subordinate prompted SNC to brief the Command and Signal portion of the order. SNC also did not task any of his fire team to get the magnetic azimuth. Despite having an incomplete five paragraph order, SNC did brief the order with confidence, using an aggressive voice which demonstrated a clear understanding of the mission. SNC developed an initial plan prior to starting the execution. SNC struggled with inter-team communications during the execution of the mission, which caused the fire team to step off in the wrong direction. The fire team got lost and had to be instructed…

    Candidate Oblea's Five Paragraph Order

    Candidate Oblea Delivered his five paragraph order ensuring to cover all paragraphs, however his understanding of the order was poor. The coordinating instructions seemed as though they were ignored during the execution phase. Fire team members violated the boundaries set in the coordinating instructions. SNC displayed a complete lack of confidence during his brief and execution phase. When approaching friction points SNC could not adjust his scheme of maneuver, instead he paused and could not proceed through the course. SNC did not effectively utilize his fire team to their potential, he would state what needed to be done and instead of delegating he would actually execute the order himself. The management of time was…

    Candidate Dorney Observation

    Candidate Dorney displayed a great amount of confidence throughout the entire evolution. He started off by getting accountability of his fire team. He spoke clearly and made constant eye contact with each member of his fire team as he briefed the five paragraph order. SNC requested a situation report from each fire team member. He stressed that time was of the essence. SNC gave the fire team specifics on how they would execute. He kept constant communication with the security and made sure there was no site of the enemy. SNC moved quickly and made his fire team move quickly as well. At the point of friction, there was no hesitation to devise a new plan and SNC ensured each member was aware of the change in plans. The fire team did…

    Mcrp 6-11 Sustaining The Transformation Analysis

    During training day 19, James was called over individually by a Cpl Wilson, a Marine from his expected battalion and told where his orders were for. One week later, Tommy and 25 other Marines were told where their orders were. There was a significant difference in leadership at this point in the story. James was talked to individually and told a brief history of his new battalion, some of the training he would be receiving in the upcoming months, and information about his final weeks in the School of Infantry. Tommy's situation was much different. He was told about his unit en masse and with no specific information as to where it was, what type of training they would be doing, or any information about graduation…

    Candidate Baca's Plan

    Candidate Baca briefed a complete operations order but with a sub-standard level of confidence. He stumbled over his words and failed to articulate his mission statement in a coherent manner. He did include detailed tasks to his subordinates for his initial plan, but then micromanaged their movements during execution. Candidate Baca spent time telling his fire team members where to place hands and feet during their attempted crossing of the obstacle and he wasted significant time deciding on a course of action next. He later realized that his plan was not working and that he had not made any progress in achieving his objective. He then asked for his subordinates help and then integrated their advice into his own plan in order to develop a plan…

    Snc's Tactics

    Candidate Summerour provided a five paragraph order that contained most of the needed information to carry out the mission, but not much more and not necessarily in the proper order. SNC’s brief was very choppy and SNC seemed overwhelmed with the amount of information he needed to organize and disseminate. His scheme of maneuver was hasty and was briefed after the tasks. The tasks assigned did not have a purpose. SNC’s execution went well until the one point of friction, the simulated casualty, occurred. SNC did not give orders to neutralize the enemy for a few moments. During this time his sense of security was lacking. He left the casualty where he fell and took the rest of the fireteam to assault the enemy, having no assistance or cover…

    Thunder Runs: A Case Study

    According to Frontline and an interview with COL Perkins, “as the United States developed its war plan, it was clear that it would have to take Baghdad to have a decisive victory”.5 COL Perkin’s knew this and provided his unit with clear and concise purpose as well as the desired end state when conducting both Thunder Runs. The intent was to collect intelligence, push through city and remain downtown if specific conditions were met. The end state was to collapse the Saddam Government and Iraqi regime. Perkins acted on the guidance from LTG Wallace and MG Blount, and relayed it down to his three subordinate battalion commanders. COL Perkins ensured there was no confusion due to the high risk involved. He gave orders to “attack as fast as you can, and push through the center of the city. If a vehicle becomes disabled due to enemy fire, you immediately take the crew off, put them on another vehicle, and you just leave it”.6 COL Perkins gave specific guidance on Objective Moe, Larry and Curly which was crucial to keeping…

    This is when General Man’s began to apply more pressure. B-Company was being attacked by a numerically superior force.

Shortly after the onset of heavy fighting, the remainder of LTC Moore’s unit had landed on the LZ. He arranged his units to reinforce those who were engaged in heavy fighting to the west, and protect the LZ from the advancing NVA to the…

    Gordon Wood We The People Analysis

    The road to the United States Constitution was a long and arduous way, filled not only with uncertainties but also with lively debates and hopes for carrying on the republican spirit. With a deep-seated distrust in a powerful central government Americans placed great emphasis on the independence of their individual states. This suspicion was reflected in the states’ constitutions and in the power structure of state governments. Gordon S. Wood argues in his book The American Revolution: A History, that the constitutions of the states and the process of writing the US Constitution reflected a change in political thought. Looking at the process of constitution writing…

    Marshal and Gordon Case

    The case presents a scene where company is trying to breach a new market segment that requires completely different approach and skillset than that of the majority of the current employees. I believe that biggest problem in this case is need to change way how current managers sell and execute on business projects which is significantly different for PR activities that are currently major share of the business and executive positioning projects (EPP). My experience shows that many professional services companies in the world are facing the same problems i.e. Big 4. The core reason for this might be that historically all business of these companies where performed in a certain region or area, however as companies grow bigger and gain more international presence their work and projects go across regional borders. Even more in many cases this means countries and areas with different cultures and ways of practicing business that require completely different skillsets and different way of working for organization to succeed in winning the competition.…
