Essay / Research Paper Abstract
13 pages in length. Subordinates will not respect or perform for a leader who cares little about anything besides his own agenda; instead, they may ultimately –- and unwittingly -- sabotage the very objective this detached leader seeks to achieve. While this is a possibility that may have significant consequences within the corporate world, it carries a threat of life and death in the military. Those at the helm of armed forces uphold an especially critical influence over their subordinates where human capital is aligned with military needs. If effective leadership represents the heart of this protective government organization then it only stands to reason how leaders must be "willing pioneers, ready to step out into the unknown to look for opportunities to innovate, grow, and improve…they understand that innovation comes more from listening than from telling" (Brown, 2002, pp. 2-3). Looking at the contributions of Colin Powell, JROTC and leadership training in general provides a closer understanding of how youth and junior leaders draw from their superiors' influence.

A pertinent example of influence with regard to military leadership is Colin Powells UN address where he justified utilizing satellite images to prove the existence
of weapons of mass destruction. Reiterating the reason for Resolution 1441, Powell (2003) stated it was not to determine if Iraq had been guilty of material breach of its
obligations -- which had already been confirmed -- but to disarm the weapons of mass destruction. Providing a final chance for compliance, Powell illustrated his loyalty to America by
commenting how Iraq, not the inspectors, had to be held responsible for compliance and disarmament (Powell, 2003). Moreover, he pointed to a tape recording of government monitored conversation between
two Iraqi senior officers, a colonel and a brigadier general admitting prior knowledge of pending plans and orchestrating their reasons for having certain questionable military commodities, which wholly justified the
