Synopsis

This study examined the techniques employed by collegiate football head coaches in the development of their assistants and staff, exploring how coaches influence leader development in the athletics arena. By conducting a comparison of current doctrine and coaching techniques, this paper will seek to identify key differences and uncover common practices shared by both the head coach and the Army leader. Within any organization, leader development is essential for success. This statement could not be more appropriate when analyzing a unique culture and complex organizational system: the Army and collegiate football. Though current doctrine clearly identifies what the Army must do on a macro level regarding leader development in general, it lacks specifics when dealing with developing the staff. Utilizing the techniques developed by collegiate head coaches to develop their staff, the Army can gain resources to support its efforts on developing its staff. Coaching as a method is paramount to the premise of leader development and it is an area which directly supports development of staffs and subordinates.
