| SecDef: Attention on Deck |

| [SOFmag] As you all know, yesterday, I asked Secretary of the Navy Spencer for his resignation, and I received it. The reason behind this request was simple. There are some basic rules that I was taught to live by during my time in the military. Many in the civilian world also abide by these same rules. When followed, these rules help make for more effective, cohesive and trusting teams. These rules are very straight forward and fairly well-known. First, we have a chain of command that should be followed and that chain of command must be kept informed. Second, once we agree on a position we stick to it and support it both in private and public. Third, if you don’t like that position then simply resign, otherwise implement it as if you would implement any other order. Fourth, we don’t discuss sensitive internal deliberations. And, fifth, we are responsible for our organizations and whatever they say and do or don’t say and don’t do. |
