To better facilitate this, please consider the tools below and then use the next page to capture your reflections on your NCLS experience.

A Leader of Character….

The ARDA Model We would like to oer this process model as a framework for listening, reflecting, and applying what you hear at NCLS. This model identifies how we engage with the world as potential leaders and people of character. We can expand these capacities, and better recognize, reason, decide and act in the face of competing interests and influences.

30 Making the most of NCLS

To facilitate your thinking, inspiration, and further development of your character and leadership strengths, this space has been provided for you to capture what you hear and think about during your NCLS experience. In the coming days you will be given the opportunity to share your responses to the developmental objectives listed below. It is our hope that you will use this note page to capture your reflections on your NCLS experience, and that you will then share your responses with us online (via a survey link that you will receive by email shortly after NCLS) so that we may benefit from your input about this symposium as a developmental experience.

Please consider the following:

A. The importance of alternative perspectives and testing of one’s own assumptions of others

B. Your understanding of the unique moral expectations placed on those in the Profession of Arms

C. How speaker insights apply in your life

D. Insights from NCLS as you recall a moment of ethical reasoning & action

E. Explain the role of ethics & character development

F. Reflect on your own ability to act with courage

G. Insights on what it is to be a professional military officer

H. Qualities of a leader in today’s complex world

I. The role of the Air Force Core Values (Integrity, Service, Excellence)in the Profession of Arms
