...Command And Control In Public Services Command and control is used within all public services in order to carry out tasks/operations in an effective, efficient and proper manner. Without command and control, the public services would not function properly and the employees within those public services would not be able to carry out their roles and responsibilities properly. It is important that all public services employees are over trained in their job just in case they need to work in a situation on their own without anyone else telling them what to do. For example, if a member of the ambulance service is by himself/herself and comes across an individual who has been run over, they must know exactly what to do and how to cope alone, and this is an example of why it is important for the public services to be over trained in their job. Every public service carry out different roles and responsibilities and it is through command and control that the individual is able to carry out their daily tasks in an effective and efficient way. Command and control ensures that the individual knows EXACTLY what their job entails and it ensures that the individual is fully trained and over trained in the job they specify in. Command and control in the Army is highly important for military exercises such as drill practise/competitions. The individual in charge of the military exercise e.g. Sergeant Major, must have good command and control over the soldiers in order for the soldiers...

...this document I will be analysing the importance and use of command and control, then go onto evaluate it further. All the public services have a chain of command, or management structure, with levels of command responsibilities identified by ranks or titles. Therefore must be proven effect and is definitely important… Not only is command and control one of the most important things in the public services, but vital in order for them to function effectively. Command and control enables the services to take control of situations where control is needed, therefore ensuring the situation doesn’t escalate meaning could potentially save more lives or prevent further destruction. Command and control is important to the way in which uniformed public services operate, it is the method by which they perform their tasks. Situations arise that require immediate and decisive actions, therefore those responsible for command and control but be prepared, trained and practised in the necessary skills if such situations were to occur e.g. in the armed forces when under fire the person in charge needs to give a quick, clear decision on the spot on what to do whether that’s proceed to safety or fire back. Every public service employee carry out different roles and responsibilities and it is through command and control that the individual is able to carry out their daily tasks in an effective and efficient way. Command and control ensures that the individual knows EXACTLY what their job entails...

...Skills in Command and Control Credibility The definition of credibility is the quality of being believable or being worthy of trust. This is a skill that is needed as many team members rely on their leader being trustworthy and believable, as they’ll be taking orders and commands from them, so they need that reassurance that they know what they’re saying and being able to trust them. This is something that is really important that a leader has, as I believe that many organisations would fail in fulfilling their message if there was no trust involved. Being credible is more of a quality than a skill, but it’s a crucial factor that needs to be taken into account. In public service organisations, the public look up to them and are trusted to carry out the work that will safeguard and protect them, if a leader of a team cannot be credible to their team, then trust in that organisation is either lost or lowered. Motivation Motivation is the desire or willingness to do something. This is usually in the form of enthusiasm and giving others supportive words that energise them and get them to reach their goal/s. Team leaders need the skill to motivate others, as they’ll be times when their team lack motivation and don’t really want to do something that they’re being asked of, so therefore a team leader needs excellent motivation skills to get them going again. In public services, motivation is needed so that teams can actively and successfully carry out tasks, with the enthusiasm...

...This paper addresses the issue of Work-Life Balance, an area of special interest highlighted by the Navy Civil Engineer Corps’ Women Professional Network (WPN). Through several phone conferences with and input from Civil Engineer Corps (CEC) officers across the Navy and some initial website research, this paper defines work-life balance, assesses the relevance and importance to an officer in the CEC, and provides potential recommendations for consideration. What is Work-Life Balance? Work to live, don’t live to work. The first step is to define work-life balance and understand why it’s important. A good work-life balance means that you have control over your workplace conditions and that you are equally satisfied with your work life and with your home life. Work-life balance means that you have and understand the many benefits of having varied interests and ways to spend your time outside of work. It means you value having other things to focus on, and that you are consequently a happier and more fulfilled person. With this lifestyle comes a greater sense of inner security and confidence and these qualities tend to play out in the way you interact with people, the way you handle stress and problems, and in the way you are perceived as a military officer and leader. Philosophically, you, your home, the organization you work for, and society benefit when you have a balanced work-life. What makes a good work-life balance? This depends on your personal...

...Command and control skills using command task and qualities P5, M3, D2 Command and control skills and qualities A good commander should be able to show the team command and control skills and qualities through different tasks and activities. Personal qualities Qualities for command and control • Knowledge of people- a good leader should know there them and the individuals in that team and how to bring the best out in people and what makes them happy and motivates them. A good leader needs to have knowledge of people because it means that they can have patience and understand that people can make mistakes when under pressure. • Belief- a good leader stands by their organisation and what it stands for this means that they are commented and loyal to the service. However if the leader didn’t believe in their organisation then they wouldn’t be able to show the team dedication which would make the team fall apart. • Strength of character- a good leader knows to take responsibilities for their own actions and will not try to blame someone else. • Creativity-a good leader can be creative and when dealing with a task can come up with an original idea. A good leader doesn’t get involve personally in any task because they need to be able to see a picture as a whole and not as individuals. • Personality- a good leader should be able to adapt their personality to any mod for example they might have to be forceful because it might be the only way to deal with the situation...

...Walter B. Peppersack ASCI 611 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Professor: Bill Teeple 5 December 2014 Abstract This research is in the Oculus system; a roll-on/roll-off Command and Control unit that attaches to a standard military 463L pallet design that is accommodated by the C-130 Hercules. There are two modules that are mounted to a pallet system that roll on and off just like any other cargo load. The design requirements for this payload are that it will be able to be loaded on any model of C-130 without permanent modifications to any of the airframes. The system safety aspect of Oculus and the way it is designed is well defined without specific hazards outside the parameters of normal operations with any other payload, other than the lift arm mechanism for the sensor pod attached to the aft door, and the operational parameters while it is in use. It is because of the design requirements for not modifying the airframe that has created a safety issue with the way the sensor pod is set in operation. Oculus Sensor Platform System The C-130 Hercules transport aircraft has been around a long time. It has been a proven airframe, has been the work horse for the U.S. military services through the decades, has seen many conflicts, and has provided air and ground support for numerous missions worldwide. With its longevity it has seen numerous problems, has had many up-grades and modifications that each have their own safety issues. The ground support systems themselves...

Mac menus and keyboards often use symbols for certain keys, including the modifier keys: Command ⌘ Shift ⇧ Option ⌥ Control ⌃ Caps Lock ⇪ Fn If you're using a keyboard made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Windows logo key instead of Command. Some Mac keyboards and shortcuts use special keys in the top row, which include icons for volume, display brightness, and other functions. Press the icon key to perform that function, or combine it with the Fn key to use it as an F1, F2, F3, or other standard function key. To learn more shortcuts, check the menus of the app you're using. Every app can have its own shortcuts, and shortcuts that work in one app may not work in another.

...Leadership, Management and Command: The Officer’s trinity.[1] W B Howieson & H Kahn The acts of leading, managing and commanding (based on either philosophy or practice) have had to adapt throughout the history of the Royal Air Force, in concert with changing environments; these acts will have to change again in the 21st century and will require new skills, new attitudes and differing perspectives of the Officer’s trinity. INTRODUCTION There is a plethora of literature on leadership, management and command. In the civilian (business) market, there are – literally – thousands of books on leadership; management; and leadership and management as a ‘dual’ concept. However, there are no books in the business market on what the military call ‘command’.[i] In contrast, in the military domain, there are an equal amount of books on leadership; command; and leadership and command together. However, very little has been written – to date – about military management; this represents a very serious limitation. New business practices and performance management systems now require capable senior managers and leaders and private sector organizations have found clear strategic benefit in providing a structured approach to the developmental needs of senior executives. Although it is recognized that leadership, management and command are closely related (especially in the military environment), comparatively little has been written on the nature and practice...

...who contribute to achieving a certain goal. There are various organizational structures in management; however the most predominant structure in the United States Navy would be the chain of command structure. The Navy uses two types of chain of command structures, which are the normal chain of command and the operation chain of command. Throughout this paper, I will compare and contrast the two different types of chain of command structures used by the Navy. I will also evaluate how organizational functions influence and determine the organizational structure. Additionally, I will explain how organizational design helps determine which structure best suits the organization’s needs. Normal Chain of Command Structure The normal chain of command is the organization’s structure used during normal peace time routine. This structure is different from the operation chain of command structure because it goes through the Vice President and Secretary of the Navy. This chain of command involves the President of the United States, the Vice President, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of the Navy, and the Chief of Naval Operation (CNO). After the CNO, this chain of command is divided into three categories: training commands, shore establishments, and operation force commands. Training commands provide Naval Academy, basic training, specific rating training for specific job, and general training. Rochlin, La Porte, and Roberts (2002) stated, “The Navy's training cycle is perforce...

Aaron Alexis, a contractor working at the Naval Sea Systems Command, began a shooting spree which lasted a little over 60 minutes and resulted in 12 deaths and several injuries. Alexis seemed to engage targets of opportunity and did not seem to target specific individuals. A report created by the Metropolitan Police Department’s Internal Review Team (2014) found that Alexis’ last exchange of gunfire was with a local law enforcement officer who was shot, but “was able to return fire, killing Alexis and ending his rampage” (p. 3). This incident was handled in a commendable manner, however there were some things that may...
