Having genuine concern for subordinate health and welfare generates motivation, inspiration, and influence—it is the right thing for leaders to do. Army members will be more willing to go the extra mile for leaders whom they respect, and they are more likely to respect leaders who respect them.

Leaders display genuine concern by preparing subordinates through tough realistic training that prepares them for the hazards and dangers of combat.
