Civil Air Patrol Leadership Lean to lead
Chapter 9 The Cadet Officer questions
with actual answers.

How did officers' professional expectations rise with the birth of the modern military? ANS -Officers
were required to be able to master new technology and lead massive armies.



How does the concept of a meritocracy guide militaries in the selection of officers? ANS -Egalitarian
ideas took root, and wealth and ancestry (and later race and gender) were no longer viewed as fair or
honorable measures of a leader.



Why do officers swear an oath of office? ANS -Responsibility should always accompany authority, so an
oath comes before the actual commission.



What is the difference between direct leadership and indirect leadership? ANS -Direct leadership
includes working directly with subordinates, and indirect leadership includes working through a chain
and leading those who will lead.



What are the four forms of indirect leadership? ANS -Leadership from a distance

Leadership through a link

Leadership through creations

Upward influence



What does "link" mean in the context of indirect leadership? ANS -Someone who is between the person
leading and the people being led. This "middle man" is usually led as well by the leader.



How can upward influence be a positive form of indirect leadership? ANS -When the subordinate has
ideas that are beneficial to the organization.

, Why are organizations and leaders expected to honor a public trust? ANS -Leaders who find themselves
in powerful positions have an obligation to the public at large.



What are sample issues relating to corporate social responsibility? ANS -Corruption

Stewardship

Philanthropy

Sustainability

Human rights

Transparency



Why do professionals often join professional associations? ANS -To honor the public trust



Why do most professional associations adopt a code of ethics? ANS -To earn the public's trust



What is "dissent?" ANS -The expression of opinions contrary to the official view, and a means for a
leader to call attention to obligations that are higher than the duty to follow orders.



Why is dissent important for the team's success? ANS -Organizations cannot always see impending
issues or threats, but sometimes lower-ranking people can.



Why should dissent be valued within the military? ANS -Officers cannot be permitted to order their
subordinates into actions which are wrong, and lower ranking officials often have a better vantage point
than generals.



What are principles for dissenting with respect? ANS -Use chain of command

Stay professional and in control of your emotions

Recommend solutions; don't just complain about issues

Pick your battles



What are principles for encouraging and receiving dissenting views from subordinates? ANS -Create an
environment that welcomes dissent
