Earlier this week, the USMC announced the successful completion of the Infantry Officers Course (IOC) by a woman Marine officer. As has been the case for many years, with respect to race, gender, and other metrics, the military is at the leading edge in incorporating and integrating cultural change. For example, wage equity is firmly in place for all members, irrespective of their race and/or gender.
Recently I was privileged to address the Marine Corps Reserve Association (MCRA) in New Orleans at their annual convention. My presentation focused on cultural trends, recent events, the ethical considerations to these trends and events and courses of actions available to Marine leaders in the 21st century.
Along with the comments of the first paragraph, the follow on questions, comments, and discussion at the convention struck a chord and upon review, it became clear that cultural trends, ethics and actions by leaders and managers across all business enterprises would be in many respects the same or similar as that for Marine leaders.
