It's easy to think of the military as being a machine, with commanders giving orders rather than engaging their reports. But it's so cool to hear about how important leadership is in the military and how the best military commanders are leaders first, dictators second (if ever). Thanks for writing. BTW, I've been at my current job for almost a year now, so it's not exactly new. And I'm not desperate to get out! :) How cool is that? -TimK Hi, Dotan. That’s a great point.

Some Officers treat their workers as "tools" that have a function to fill, and they keep forgetting that these are human beings. Soldiers were actually hiding from them, trying not to have any contact with them. Good luck in the new job! Dotan It reminded me of my time at the Military Service (the IDF).
