Summary/Abstract: The author writes about the philosophy of leadership and its importance, pointing out that in developing a credible leadership philosophy, there are seven imperatives: vision, values, care of soldiers and families, leader development, change, diversity and humour. Moreover, he mentions that whatever the leadership level or type of organisation the leader performs, he/she owes it to those who work for him/her to develop a thoughtful, comprehensive and realistic philosophy of leadership. No philosophy of leadership can address all of the issues a leader will confront, but it will serve as a solid starting point that will be understood by him/her but, more important, by subordinates.
