Engagements
An important part of the Centre's work revolves around the provision of education. The Centre is currently working with the following organisations or groups to enhance the understanding, awareness and conduct of command, leadership and military ethics.
Australian Defence College
The Centre has an ongoing commitment to the development of command, leadership management and military ethics education and training at the Australian Defence Force Academy, Australian Command and Staff Course and Centre for Defence and Strategic Studies.
Royal Australian Navy
CDLE has been privileged to work closely with the RAN for the past few years in the development and conduct of the command and leadership module of the RAN CO/XO MFU/MWV Designate course. This course is designed to prepare the RAN's newest Commanding and Executive Officers for their jobs at sea.
The command and leadership module deals with contemporary command, leadership and ethics issues and is delivered in a manner that encourages robust discussion and reflection on these important issues by course participants.
CDLE has a close working relationship with the New Generation Navy (NGN) team to ensure the development and delivery of leadership and ethics programs is consistent with NGN.
Australian Army
CDLE conducts the leadership and military ethics workshop as a module of the Major's course at Canungra. The workshop draws not only on well known and important ethical case studies from the past but also relies heavily on examining ethical issues occurring in current operations and the barracks environment.
The Centre also conducts a 1.5 day workshop on the RSM course.
Royal Australian Air Force
A three day command, leadership and ethics module is presented to the RAAF Squadron Leader Course. The module includes extensive use of relevant case studies and discussions on emotional intelligence and techniques for effective leadership in today's contemporary environment.
CDLE is also engaged with the Senior Maintenance Manager Course (Ground and Air) to develop leadership, followership and ethics in the unit environment.
