Gen. McChrystal's seminar syllabus
Over the weekend, the Yale Daily News published the syllabus
for ousted Afghanistan commander Stanley's McChrystal's seminar,
"Leadership in Operation"(INRL 690) As a graduate student myself, the
reading coursework load is relatively light (I say that out of jealously more
than anything.) Most intriguing are the titles of some of the lectures, which
clearly reflect the peaks and pitfalls of his career. On Nov. 16, the former
general will give a lecture titled “Communicating the Story – the Media
Environment.” There are lectures on “Navigating Politics” and ““Coping
With Failure.”
The lecture series seems to center around McChrystal’s
professional experience rather than a broader look at how military leaders have
performed during past American wars.
Here is the full list of lecture titles:
7th September 2010: “The
Importance of Leading Differently – The Changing Operating Environment”
14th September 2010:
“Case Study: The Changing Military 1972-2010”

“Role of a Leader”

Change and Operating Differently”
12th October 2010: “Navigating
Politics”
19th October 2010: “Making
Difficult Decisions Pt. 1 – How We Decide”
26th October 2010
(Assignment 2 Due): “Making Difficult Decisions Pt. 2 – Dealing With Risk”
2nd November 2010: “Loyalty,
Trust and Relationships”

Notoriety and Other Realities”
7th December 2010: “The Future Leader”
A research assistant for the course told the Yale Daily News that "while students enrolled in the class are free to talk with the media about their impressions of the class, the seminar itself will be off the record." If only such stipulations had been so clearly articulated when a Rolling Stone reporter came to interview the general and his staff, how different things might be now.
