JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas – Six Air Force majors have been selected for the Department of Defense Executive Leadership Development Program, Air Force Personnel Center officials said.
The one-year program – which begins in October – is designed for
highly-motivated leaders whose performance has indicated strong aptitude for
success in senior management roles, said Lt. Col. Cotina Jenkins-Sellers, AFPC
force development and developmental education branch chief.
Primary selectees are Majors Chandler Atwood, Intelligence, Surveillance
and Reconnaissance Agency; Damen Forte, Air Mobility Command; and Phillip Shea,
Air Force District of Washington.
Alternates are Majors Roger Bass, Air Force Space Command, and Joel Douglas
and Brian Palmer, Air Force Global Strike Command.
Participants will function in a
simulated environment where they focus on real-life
situations that involve short deadlines and require thoughtful decision-making,
Jenkins-Sellers explained.
“Candidates must be
receptive to a unique training methodology, able to assume responsibility for
their own learning, and be able to conceptualize and analyze problems
effectively,” she said.
The
course requires intense self-discipline and self-study, she explained. Military
members remain in the current assignments throughout the program, with the
exception of 95 days that are spent in training, briefings and trips to
learning environments
