"German General Staff Officer Education and Current Challenges"
examines the institutional education of German General Staff
Officers, as experienced by the author, and offers a "Conceptual
Competency-Skill-Framework" for professional development. Five
competencies (Physical, Intrinsic Motivation, Intrapersonal,
Interpersonal, and Cognitive Competency) and five skills
(Deduction, Synthesis, Analysis, Induction, and Revaluation Skill)
define this model through a process of theory and praxis. A case
study of an operational planner for the first German Provincial
Reconstruction Team (PRT) in Afghanistan (2003) describes the
experiences of the author and identifies competencies and skills
that required improvisation, rather than reliance on a model of
previous institutional, operational, and personal preparation. This
monograph commends the balanced holistic approach of the German
General Staff Officer course at the Fuehrungsakademie der
Bundeswehr (German General Staff Officer Academy), and recommends
several educational venues to improve the specific competencies and
skills in an institutional setting. The trinity of premier
institutional education, operational experience and practical
insight, and a dedicated life-long program for professional
self-development, invigorates the military leader for emergent
roles in national, regional, and global mission responsibilities.
The ultimate value of a conceptual competency-skill framework is
the personal assessment, evaluation, and integration for
professional learning and performance that results in how to think,
act, and lead.
