Military Operations: The Harmful Effects of Hubris Influenced

0/5 ( ratings)

Hubris is an inherent character trait within each individual, yet common to all, and access to power merely serves as conduits for the scope of damage should hubris remain unchecked. Military failures resulting from the fatal flaw of hubris have the potential for significant lost national treasure and blood. From a combatant commander perspective, a military leader driven by the dangerous illusion of personal grandeur, arrogance and narcissism, endangers operational objectives as well as negatively influences current and future strategic objectives. The continual battle to resist hubris temptations requires inner personal humility. However, combatant commanders cannot assume subordinate’s success and must embark on a continuous evaluation, re-education, and, where necessary, removal process. A cultural of 360-degree awareness regarding military leaders is critical to avoid the negative impacts of hubris.
