Accept Solutions Other Than Your Own

The Bundeswehr’s regulation A-2600/1 on Innere Führung says: Führung muss Handlungsspielräume, Mitwirkung und Mitverantwortung ermöglichen. Leadership must allow room for action, participation and shared responsibility. Superiors must therefore lead mainly by mission, Führen mit Auftrag. The next sentence reads: Dabei müssen sie gegebenenfalls andere als die eigenen Lösungsansätze akzeptieren. In doing so, they must where necessary accept solutions other than their own. The regulation adds that only a person who was informed in time and in full, and who understands the purpose of the task, is able and willing to act in the spirit of the mission.
