Note From the Editor: Summer 2019

Editorial Note

The present CLAWS Journal has been composed with a variety of articles, opinion pieces, commentaries, and book reviews to theoretically understand why the Indian Army Chief has initiated four major studies for the transformation of the Indian Army into a “more agile fighting force” to face current and emerging threats and challenges. The Indian Army is, hence, looking to implement transformational leadership to achieve the stated goals and objectives through transactional management. The purpose of management as understood is the attainment of organisational goals in an effective and efficient manner through “planning, organising, staffing, directing, and controlling organisational resources”. Managers seek stability in an organised environment in order to control the organization's bottom line. The motivation for management is power and profit which, in the case, of the Indian Army is to transform into a more agile fighting force. Transformational leadership is different because it is“an influence of relationships among leaders and followers who intend real changes and outcomes that reflect their shared purposes”.
