Leadership and Soldier's Motivation

The Army is a stabilizing factor for any country that operates well defined by the rules, which leaves no room for interpretation, with a well-established hierarchy. Factors leading to the motivation of soldiers are: social cohesion, ideology, coercion and, last but not least, financial reward. The leader in the Army requires more than knowledge, requires courage, perseverance and a great responsibility. Requires work and sacrifice. In some cases, the leader is forced to take the toughest decisions, to show initiative and to take risks sometimes enormous. Soldiers have trust each other because of interpersonal connections established between them. They trust the Army because it had to attract members, not to recruit them. Soldiers have the task of providing the Army a moral direction of war. In a professional army soldiers are also trained sufficiently to understand the moral reasons for fighting.Leadership, motivation, management, social cohesion, soldier.
