5. Coordination and Cooperation Across the Battalions
Communication
Cadet Chain of Communication (Must let this Work)
TAC Chain of Communication
Formula for Success (C + C x B =C)
Allow Cadet Leadership the opportunity to LEAD
Let the Corps run the Corps and use the results to TAC
Don’t get in the way or do it for them
Example
Regimental PT Plan
SMI (Rifle in Rack, on Bed, or in hands)
Prompt them to find the answer, don’t give them the answer

6. Regimental PT Communicate the plan
Well in advance not the night before
Command channels and PRO channel
Publish plan at the beginning of each semester
Standardize but Build in Flexibility and Variety
Example
Vary group size (Co, Plt, Sqd, Ability groups)
Division of Land (Gym, Parade Field, Road, WLI, Wilson Field)
Designate a Spirit Company each day
Execute every PT session like Recognition Day
Daily Focus
Prep Drill
Movement Drill
Recovery Drill

PU/SU Form

Deficiency Boards
Similar to CAT or Discipline Board

8. Training Non-Cadre Leadership
Leader Training is effective and appreciated by the Cadets
Train Non-Cadre during first two days on campus
Roles and Responsibilities
Formations/PT/Inspections/Accountability
Train two weeks prior to Parent’s Weekend
Rules and Regulations of 4th Class System
CTM Refresher/Reinforce Positive Leadership/Accountability
Reduce Discipline Issues

9. Challenge Week Training Schedule
Evaluate and Restructure
Less Academics/Mandatory Training Classes
More time in the Barracks
Less time in the classroom
We have time in the schedule to SHOW them how to do a task but no time for them to DO it.
Example
Room standards
Uniform
Drill
Build some white space on the schedule and let leaders decide what they need to work on.

10. CAS Keep up the great work!!
Rick is the Man!
Functionality is getting better
Starting to see positive impact (particularly with Discipline)
Discipline: need to be able to see all previous and pending offenses for a given cadet
Leave: Need ability to approve previously denied request. Sort by start date not date submitted. Don’t allow Cadets to submit leave within 48 hours of start time.
Reports: Need the ability to sort by Academic Class and Student Class (4A-1B/C1-C5)

11. Formations/Room Standards
Squad Leader Engagement
Still a work in progress
Accountability/Inspections/Corrections

Various techniques on how this is being accomplished.
