Riassunto

German Army Transformation will face a critical period after the structural "New Army" reform in 2010. Political and military directives charter the Army to adopt and create capabilities for mission success in the contemporary and future security-politico and operational environment. This requires continuum in Army transformational processes for perpetual, internally driven change. The purpose of the paper is to present an improved decision process that can provide the German Army staff two mandatory transformational capabilities, to "shape and anticipate proactively" and to "learn and adapt" effectively. Moreover, an improved decision process can rally mutual commitment among politicians, military leaders, and the nation's citizens for German Army long-term excellence. Based on proven commercial processes and German, and U.S. strategic military guidance, this paper analyses the macro- and micro organizational peculiarities and opportunities of the German Army. Best practices and key principles from profit-oriented civilian management tools merge with tenets of complexity theory and the systems thinking school of thought.
