First Edition | 21 Application The Vision – Support – Challenge framework illustrates how the seven leadership behaviours compliment each other, but it should be noted that whilst conceptually a cycle, leaders will often have to apply all seven behaviours simultaneously, especially when considering individuals within a team. It is of the upmost importance that leaders recognise that these behaviours have to be applied to every aspect of life, and are not restricted to working hours or certain situations. Transactional or Transformational? In military life there are definitely times when a Transactional (or Directive) ‘Just do it!’ style of leadership is required. These are often in the most demanding of circumstances, when people need to react instantly and rely on the muscle memory developed during training. However, for the majority of the time, leaders must aspire to be Transformational (or Inspirational) and – motivating and inspiring the team to achieve through shared Values, vision, trust and confidence.
